Why do people steal the tip of the air compressors?

Maybe the state I live in is just ghetto as shit. It seems like every air pump at the gas station has the top part that attaches to your tire to fill it with air stolen.

I don’t understand the value of this specific part. Why do people steal them?

  • Are you sure they're being stolen and simply aren't breaking off because they are cheap and/or people are rough with things they don't own? I've had the tip break off twice when airing up my tires, and the gas station didn't even replace them for months.
