While replacing the dryer on my compressor and had broke this fitting on the compressor come apart when I tried to remove melted air hose. The broken piece is the ‘collar’ for the air hose release for the top hose on the side of the compressor facing the rear. Anyone know a part number for this? Have looked several places and Googled quite a bit with no luck. Was hoping this might be some sort of standard pneumatic fitting.

That's why we never even try the compressor rework thing up north. I've never got one of those apart. But that connector you just depress that collet. Don't worry cause the compressor was already junk before you started

Thanks for info on the name. Of course LR makes 6mm and 8mm but not 10mm... was able to find some made by Eaton so hopefully those pan out.

I hadn’t been having any issues with the compressor (faults, etc) but wanted to do his as preventative. That line was pretty gunked up so it was on its way out. Hopefully I can get some more life out of it with this cleared and a new dryer
