Shraeder valve mounting and a question.

Cannons powered by pneumatic pressure (compressed gas) using a valve or other release.

I drill a hole lightly larger than the beginning rubber taper diameter of a tubeless tire fill valve and push it through the hole from the inside.

No threads, no adhesives.

The compressed air makes it seal perfectly.

My question: How many PSI will a Shraeder valve take?

More than you will ever need.

Gippeto tested a threaded one to over 300 bar. You'd have to worry about the tubeless valve popping out before it actually fails.
