Filling probe manufactured from an austenitic type stainless steel, probably SAE 316, meaning it must have chrome alloyed into its composition, to a value of 16 - 30%, and of course, reduced carbon content. For the purpose of a filling probe, it means that you should a replacement in this part superceding the wear and tear limitations of brass, whilst also sporting its resistance to corrosion.
The girth of this probe features three belt line grooves for easier pulling/pushing effort, very useful as you need four O-rings into the air reservoir's probe slot. As such, please do keep these O-rings lubricated, unless you'd like to use up the supplied spares (as illustrated) in very little time.
As you might ascertain by the amount of O-rings on this probe - the forward ones will do the sealing work, whereas the outward ones, are there as backups. O-rings normally, if leaking but haven't sustained any terminal damage, at worst will leak very slowly. For an application such as refilling a PCP rifle even with a handpump, extraneous O-rings are an over-engineered feature for air-tightness, even at high preessures, but atleast you will have that extra assurance. The key features to this probe, is the trio of grooves belting this probe features, that allows for a very decent grip on the probe.
Not only that, but of course, you have your male Q/C terminal on the other side, which lets this probe, w/out the addition of any adapters/fittings, couple directly onto a female Q/C typically featured on an HPA compressor, PCP handpump and on a DIN / yoke filling station.
