Aircraft spruce ordering excellent, this particular product though came cross-threaded on blue hose to the air chuck. I haven’t got around to contacting service yet to see if they can just send a new line yet

The main valve that connects to the Nitrogen tank works great. The blue hose that connects to the filler gauge is flimsy, short and tangles easily. The nitrogen tank needs to be close to the plane to reach the tires. On larger aircraft, the tank will need to be under the wing to reach the mains. The filler nozzle that connects to the valve stem requires a lot of force to fill a tire. Inner tube valve stems push in when they are empty. It can be tricky to hold the valve stem, filler nozzle and also press the lever to let air out. They should have designed this with a clamp on valve. The gage on the filler is not accurate. It will get you into the ballpark, but another fill gauge is required. Overall the system does what it is supposed to do, but it will be more useful with some mods.

Of very Poor Quality! Two fitting have come loose posing a Safety hazard. Very disappointed with the quality.

The regulator will read up to 450 psi in the GKNAT kit. The highest working pressure is about 400 psi.
We sell this primarily for aviation use, however it does not have any specific application and likely be used in many different use cases. We cannot guarantee automotive compatibility but the product itself would be fine in that environment.
The vendor has a C of C, but there is not a FAA-PMA document. This is used on the ground and is not attached to the aircraft so it would not need a PMA.
No, the gauges do not have calibration certificates in the box.
Per Vendor: "the regulator will fit any nitrogen cylinder that has a CGA of 580."
