So I've got a couple unused classic valves and wanted to put them to use...got a couple questions about capped valves
Where can you get a cap for the valve?
Will any regulator work?
What regulators are most 'consistent'?
Thanks

Deus Machina was making them but seems to have vampored. I have a PM to him but he has yet to reply.
As a side note I need a cheap valve if you're looking to sell. Stress cheap.

I've got one
You're gonna want a regulator with a high recharge rate. I use Sidewinders on mine. If you need a cap let me know.
I do need a cap...I like the look of the sidewinders also...are they still in production/ readily available
They sure are go to their website akapaintball.com
yes they are still in stock and still produced. be sure not to get the sst sidewinder its range is 0-400 psi and doesnt like high inputs.
ITT the older Sidewinders are actually better looking. If using for a pump, you don't need to worry about recharge as much. I have a SW on a Pneu project, but on a pump I have a BL reg that works quite well.
FF, I may be interested in a cap if you're making them.
I tried to get XMT to make some. I'm sure he is taking a break.
Last time I contacted him via MCB about pump kits he said he was quitting production
yea im planning on using it on a pump so hopfully my bob long torpedo will work, eventually i would like the older style sidewinder from aka, the new ones look kinda goofy IMO...thanks for the info fellas
Ironicly enough I just sent XMT a message again to try and twist his arm. I want 2 so I can cap both of my McFly Mags. I would like to find a way to have the cap completely flush with the back also.
What do caps go for?
I would dedinately want at least 1
I would take 2 and be willing to pay more for a special request on them.
Would caps like that have a market? They look good, but seem pretty long - I appreciate some of the possible performance gains from using certain inline regulators in lieu of the integrated reg, but I assume most people are looking for a shorter setup?
Any interest in doing a run Frizzle Fry?
Not something I'm capable of doing at the moment.
I might make some of these valves caps for you guys. I have a cnc lathe open. Just gotta see if they make burst discs with NPT instead of NPTS threads. My version will be tapped in the back with a burst disc....its the only way i will make them.
Why? While I could live with it, I would rather not have it. Anyone using this will be using an exteral regulator that will have a pressure vent. Essentially to cause issues, the bottle reg would have to fail and then the inline reg as well. Isnt putting a burst disk in just overkill?
I am in for 2. The burst disc requirement is fine with me. I should be able to pay in full by Wednesday if you need funds for material. Start up a dealer thread and lets get this rolling. Maybe someone will send/post some designs to inspire as well.
The shorter the better!
I'd be in for one!

Think i will start a poll to see how many people are interested in a valve cap
Got my sidewinder reg in...anyone know what the ideal pressure to have classic valves at?
