I've got a Brute 15 gal 125psi compressor I picked up for cheap almost 10 yrs ago. For my occasional use, it has served me well.

This past weekend, the check valve failed, as in, it came apart. The pressure regulator failed in a similar manner not long after I bought the unit (chinese high quality.....)

The exact replacement is no longer available (of course).

So my question is:

Are all check valves basically the same, meaning, can I use a 'universal' type one in its place?

(A new compressor is out of the question right now, and this unit otherwise works fine).



Thanks!
