valve elbow size

[Marko219]

I'm sorry if this question was asked, I tried searching for it and didn't find it. I wanted to know if I had to buy the elbow for the valve from the agd store because I bought one from my local paintball shop, asking for one for an automag, he gave me one and said there all the same. I can only get a quarter turn. The elbow looks like it says eaton on it if that helps at all.Thanks

it should be standard, as long as he didn't give you a metric one by mistake. just make sure you arn't crossthreading it.

Be careful with this. We have seen fittings come in many sizes that are supposed to be 1/8x27 but the variances are great. Try another fitting and make sure it screws in a few threads before it starts getting tight.

A standard 1/8 NPT 90 degree should work. They are sold everywhere paintball products are.
I have been searching for 90 degree swivel fittings ONLY NOW made by PMI. PMI sells them but hardly any proshops carry them. because the pro shops state they leak. I have had mine for five years without leak. They will stay good if you take care of them. plus they give you a little more room on the side of the marker. I need the room because I have PROCONNECTS on all my Mags.

This is the 2nd elbow I got but from a different place. tomorrow or the day after I will go again and ask to test out a couple elbows. Thanks for the help

yeah, just take your valve into the shop with ya.

not trying to hijack the thread, but do they make metric tanks?
