    My company’s air compressor is out & I have to go to the tire repair part of our shop or go to Loves to add air to my tires. My air chuck nipple is too small to fit into Love’s air hose. I have to ask them to borrow their air chuck every time I want to add air to my tires. The image of the 2 air chucks ( mine is on the left & Loves is on the right ). The other image is the piece I need. Is this called a nipple also? I want to buy one, but I haven’t found it online. Can someone please tell me what to Google so I can find it? If it isn’t called a nipple, then what is it?
    Thank you

    The one you have is 1/4", you need 3/8". It's called a quick connect male air fitting

    Any autoparts store should have that. I'd just attach a male and female quick coupler together to make an adapter. Then you don't have to swap out the male coupler each time.
