A collar slideably mounted on the tubular base is biased against the interior of the housing with a coil spring to regulate the pressure. An inflation gas is supplied through the neck of the housing which has a plunger extending through the tubular base. A threaded cavity in the base permits permanent installation on an inflation valve.
