hi, sorry to be cheeky but...
i have a small diving cylinder i use to fill my air rifle and i'm thinking of adapting it to fill the tyres on my 4x4. i have no idea what regulator or fittings i would need to make this happen. has anyone here done anything similar or can point me in the right direction?
thanks alot,
mike.

Hi it depends on the cylinder fitting, you need to drop the cylinder press to a working pressure (diving cylinder regulators reduce the cylinder pressure from say 230 bar to 9 bar) I hav an adapter that fits on the low pressure hose from my regs and I can use this to inflate car tyres. if your cylinder will fit a diving regulator then you could pick up a cheap secon hand reg and a tyre fitting on ebay. I hope this is of some use Paul

They actually sell a car tyre inflator thats fits on the end of a low pressure hose ( as its been pointed out you need to drop the pressure from 3500psi) using a regulator

Don't know who supllies the Tyre inflators maybe Sub Aqua products???
