I was adding air to the six tires on my RV motorhome with dually wheels. I was able to screw the air compressor hose into the stems on five of the wheels, but one has a stem that is just slightly wider and the threads don't match. They're all Schrader valves.

Any clues on how I can buy an adapter that will work? I could get an adapter with a clip on the end of the hose, but not sure that would fit either.

Anyone else run into this and have a suggestion? In the interim, I'll go to the gas station and try that.
 
I have these extenders that put the air fill and check at a convenient location

and these capless stems for convenience. Never have to take off a cap to check or fill the tire.

mine is similar to what is shown in the picture, except there are wire clips that hold the extender stem, not the L shaped holder you show. And curiously, one side can screw on, the other side cannot.
