725PSI Solenoid Valve

[MrCrowley]

Just found a 3/4" solenoid valve for diesel applications with operating pressures of up to 725PSI, or 50BAR on an Auction site. I asked for more details, but I think it'll look similar to this:

Probably too good to be true, as usual.

No sorry, the auction ended, it has been relisted, so i'll check again.

Have you ever looked at nitrous valves? They are high pressure and I would assumer a relatively high volume valve. Or perhaps C02 solenoid valves for shifters? I am unaware of their prices but it would allow for some nice small guns to be made.

No they cant, those are solenoids and in no way resembly sprinkler valves

I dont see why they couldnt be modded like a sprinkler valve.

I doubt you could without matter penetrating vision. If it is a diaphragm valve I bet It would work.

[Hotwired]

Yes they are solenoid valves. And so are sprinkler valves.

Unless they are direct acting solenoid valves they will be diaphragm valves with a wide body where the diaphragm is.

Those can be modded and in fact Cornishtiger from the UKSGC boards did exactly that as can be seen here with a 1" brass solenoid valve mod.

Let me rephrase, You could add a BLow gun to this, but there is no point what so ever, as the Solenoid on top of this does not suffer from the same problem as the SPrinkler solenoids.
