TEKTON 4755 Oil/Water Separator
The TEKTON Oil/Water Separator is a must-have accessory for any air spray job. Water is kept out of the air line, which prevents damage and allows tools to perform at maximum efficiency. Traps water and oil for a clean air spray job every time. It can be easily installed between air tool and line and has a 90 day guarantee. Specifications: Maximum Air Pressure: 150 PSI Air Inlet: 1/4-Inch NPT Air Outlet: 1/4-Inch NPT.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.

Works perfect when used properlly!
This filter does the job perfectly if you use it in the correct manner. A lot of people here are just using it wrong.

A. This is not a replacement for a larger "main" in-line water/oil separator. IE a 1/2, or 3/8 filter like;

This unit is meant to be used at the input end of a paint spray gun, hence the low pressure. It not intended to run at 90+ PSI for something like an impact wrench or air hammer.

B. You can't hang this (or any water separator) right off your compressor and expect it to fill up with water. You need to provide room for the compressed air to condense the water out. IE 30+ feet of hose or pipe. I guarantee you if you don't see water after heavy use of your compressor move it to the end of a 50 foot hose and you will be draining it like a colonic bag!

C. Yes it's plastic. Would you rather have glass that...

It works!!
I wasn't sure if it will really work since it's not that expensive.... But it does!

I was spraying some paint and getting bubbles, so I got it for not-so-expensive investiment. Well, it worked and no bubble after that. I'm not the professional painter by any means but it works just fine for my need!!
durable simple design
I am using this unit inline with an HVLP spray gun on a large 60 gallon compressor. I do have compressor water filters at the compressor but wanted to be sure none got through to mar my spraying. This unit is small, and glass but the glass is very, very thick. I think you'd have to hit it with a hammer to break it. A small push pin in the bottom side of it releases any water collected.

Simple design and durable. It does the job.
