    Default inline shutoff valve

    Used to run an old gmc compressor and it had a shutoff valve before the airline which was really useful - depressurise the line between coats
    The unit I'm using these days doesn't have one.

    Its a Rolair JC25WH

    My Question:

    Ís it be possible to install a shutoff valve into the outlet on the compressor using a nitto coupler one end and another nitto to connect to the airline

    Thanks for any suggestions

    It sure is, Bunnings will have a male/female valve 1/4” that you could even put behind the existing nitro fitting on the compressor

    or
