It is an authentic OEM sourced item which is specially produced for use with Bostitch air compressors. The pressure gauge connects to the pressure switch valve and measures the air pressure inside the tank. You may need a socket set, a set of pliers, and a screwdriver when replacing this part. It will need to be replaced if it becomes broken. Keep in mind this high-quality part is sold individually.

Packaging
When I received my pressure gage, not only was the nipple with threads was the wrong size, was 3/8" and not 1/4", the lens on the gage was cracked. It was packaged in an ordinary small bubbled envelope which did not protect the glass on the gage.

The 2 gauges were replaced fine, but he reducing valve body is very flimsy
The reducing valve body is very flimsy. When I tried to fit it with a standard wrench, the body got a fine hairline crack. How is this possible?

Compressor wouldn\'t maintain air pressure and pressure gauge glass was cracked & leaking
1.) Carefully removed old air chuck,pressure gauges, and 3/8 double threaded piece from pressure reducer and cleaned threads of any parts that you intend to re-use, like in my case,the air chuck and pressure gauge that screws into pressure reducer with brass wire brush.
2.) Wrap each threaded piece clockwise with Teflon tape.

4.) After CAREFULLY threading all parts back into reducer(you DO NOT want to put a lot of stress or pressure from a rubber jawed vise or vise-grips) on the reducer, so only tighten 1/4 turn past finger tight, or you will break the reducer...this thing is made from cast!)
5.) Reinstall complete assembly and check for leaks...done!
