Badly cracked gauge, what to do??

[dyerules]

The gauge on my 90cu 4500psi nitro duck tuffskin tank some how cracked. I noticed it after the first timew it was filled but it was small. Now after multiple fills its got atleast five cracks running through it. Do i need to replace it?? If i do what kind of gauge should i get???

Thanks in advance!!!

Yes, you should replace your gage. There are a lot available. The best mini-gages I've seen are the Mac Dev gages.

If you'd rather get a full size gage, then go with the Ashcroft gages.

i would definatly get a new gauge but im not familiar with gauges

MacDev minis are the best I've found. Checked them out after BlackVCG turned me on to them.

They are a little more spendy, but accurate to +/- 3%.

They are also threaded off center so it takes a little bit of thought on how to install if they are close together like on a Flatline tank.

Good Luck,

Bill

Thanks for the responses!!! Do they sell them factory direct or do i have to fin them at a different site??? If so, where??

[BlackVCG]

www.vital-paintball.com has them.

32* gauges are nice...

I got mine at "Gramps and Griz's" I think.

They are the US distribtor, MacDevssite lists them.
