Airhead Multi-Valve 3-Piece Inflation Valve Kit with Boston and Shrader Valves

The Airhead Multi-Valve is a 3-piece replacement valve kit for inflatable towables, tubes, and other air-filled products. The kit includes two Boston valves with different thread patterns on their bases, plus a Shrader valve with a cap. Because the two Boston valves use different thread patterns, one of them is likely to match the fitting on your inflatable regardless of brand, making this kit useful as a universal replacement or spare. The Boston valves feature a square base rather than a round one, which is easier to grip and turn, especially with wet hands common around water sports gear. The Shrader valve lets you inflate at a gas station air pump or with a standard air compressor. For a manual option, the Shrader valve can be unscrewed so the Boston valve can be inflated with an Airhead air pump instead. All three components are molded in bright red and green for easy visibility, so they are simple to spot if dropped on a dock, in grass, or in water. The valve set is made of plastic and ships as a compact 3-piece kit (two Boston valves, one Shrader valve with cap). It is a straightforward fix for a leaking, cracked, or missing inflation valve on tubes, towables, and similar inflatable equipment.
