I stumbled across this valve while going through MyAirCannons.com videos. Its a tilted valve that's supposed to allow better air flow.

This video at 0:30 and 3:15 the MyAirCannons guy explains how it performs alot better.


I cant find anyone else mentioning this sort of valve in the air cannon sphere online. If it cost the same as a non tilted sprinkler valve I see no reason not to use it all the time in replace of a normal sprinkler valve.

Just thought I posted this to get more awareness and thoughts about it.

You will get smoother flow but whether it actually translates into visibly greater power is debatable with all other factors being equal.

It would be interesting to see some numbers.
