Quick question,
Can I screw on a 1/4 Pressure gauge onto a tire vale? Or do I need to buy brass fittings to screw into a threaded pvc reducer to put on my cannon?

Why put a gauge on your cannon anyway when most pumps and compressors have their own.

I'm sure plenty of folks have tapped thick sections of PVC successfully to take a gauge. If you do it in an end cap then pour in some epoxy it should work fine.

I'm facing a similar issue, that solutions sounds do-able, saves me from having to find an adapter .jackssmirkingrevenge wrote:I'm sure plenty of folks have tapped thick sections of PVC successfully to take a gauge. If you do it in an end cap then pour in some epoxy it should work fine.

You'd be right! IF yall learn to use your tapered pipe tap that comes with every tap and die set with a bit of thread tape there'd be no need for epoxy.......JSR wrote:I'm sure plenty of folks have tapped thick sections of PVC successfully

Wouldn't it be nice if they also included the appropriate tapered reamer?jrrdw wrote:You'd be right! IF yall learn to use your tapered pipe tap that comes with every tap and die set.......
