1999 Defender 110 Td5 SW Caledonian Blue

Compressor airline repair

I dropped the airline (compressor to air tools) on the floor and the push fit/quick release connector ended up in bits on the floor.

From what I can tell I have Euro fittings on the tools I have.

What do I need to repair the end of the hose?
I was thinking chop off a section of old hose, insert a new bit and jubilee clip in another one? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Sounds like a plan.
You might want to use one of those crimp-up O ring clips instead of a jubilee clip.
They aren't as bulky and so less chance of scraping the clip against your hand, or worse still the Defender, when using any air tools!!

Cheers. Good idea about the jubilee clip.
I did spend time hunting the right ends but ended up in circles. Not sure of the correct name for the ends. Back to hunting. 1999 Defender TD5 110
