quick couplers
What quick couplers and male ends do you guys use on air hoses and guns? I can only get one house out of the ones i buy before they start leaking and eventually blow off. The female hose end usually out last the male ends even though 5 different nail and staple guns use the one hose.

I just buy the most expensive ones that Lowes carries. They usually cost 97 cents or so. For female, I get the universal connectors, as I feel they seal better.

thats about what i do to. the last set came from marvins. It was 4 male ends and one quick coupler for 8-10 dollars. The coupler seems fine but the male ends have visable wear. Just thought somebody found something better. Almost nothing annoys me more than a leaking air hose. Not to mention the compressor always running.
Thanks.
