This Is A Locking Air Chuck

Nowhere in the product description does it state that this is a locking type air chuck. This chuck is great for large air volume tires or high pressure tires. However, it can be difficult to quickly disconnect the chuck from the tire valve. Being able to quickly disconnect is critical when adding air to very small tires, such as wheelbarrow or sub-compact tractor tires. A delayed disconnect on those tires can result in significant over-inflation or even tire explosion. I already possessed a Milton locking air chuck, and I believed I was ordering one that did not have ridges in the foot that locks the chuck to the valve threads. Milton products are top notch, but the missing information in the product description identifying it as a locking air chuck is a serious oversight.
