Can anybody help me figure out what this piece is on my air compressor and why it leaks air? This is a brand new air compressor that I just bought yesterday. Had the same thing happen to an older air compressor the other day, both Husky brand.

Sometimes air leaks at the threads. Yup can use Teflon tape and see it that does the trick. Easy low cost fix.

Agreed. Teflon. Petcock if I'm not mistaken but there's a good chance I am.

The thing is there’s actually a tiny hole in that piece where the air is coming out of, not through the threads

isn't this a feature, not a bug?

there isnt a pin or something moves through the center there and pulls that closed when you release the compressor?

sounds like whatever it is, is sticking.

Actually, I just realized that that hole only spews air when the pump is running, but it stops when it’s off and the air compressor works fine so all good! Thanks a bunch

looks like a pressure relief valve.
