This is a manufacturer sourced replacement part designed for use with Bostitch nailer. This is an end cap to which the hose are connected. This tool uses a 1/4" N.P.T. male plug. This cap is made out of metal and it is sold individually.
Remove the retaining ring from the end of the cap, then all the existing parts from the broken end cap. Remove the screw the broken end cap, then thread the old cap off of the housing. Install the new end cap with the screw, then assemble the rest of the parts to the new end cap.
The end of the inlet housing was cracked so I had to replace it. I simply removed the old one and replaced with the new part and everything fit perfectly.
Remove the retaining ring from the end of the cap. Then proceed to remove all the remaining parts from the end of the cap. Remember the order they were in. Remove the small screw in the end cap. Thread off the old end cap, then thread on the new one. Replace all the other parts in reverse order.
