Airline Connector - Identification. What the hell is this item??

[Svengali0]

I now have a an Ingersoll-Rand compressor with airlines and a lot of useful tools fairly recently obtained from an older fellow neighbour- ex mine engineer.
The entire setup has these bloody airline connectors. Thing is, they are nice. No leaking, good coupling.
I now want more of them but can't for the life of me find what they actually are...
Pics (sorry for potato quality) have a Nitto type connector included for reference purposes.
Can anyone here help with identification?

Cheers steu

Possibly a hydraulic connector.

I think its still an air coupling,,
it would be a messy hydraulic one [biggrin]

from the blurb,,
it runs to 300psi, which is a lot!

just wondering if thats the reason for the long end?
I'm thinking the long end supports the hose, stops it bending and working the clamp?
