My Diaphragm Launcher+Damage pics.

Its better than any pvc made piston valve, Im sure there are better metal and or steel piston valves out there. IMO its better than the supah and mauler is cuz I have both and this type of valve blows them away. Also this valve can be taken to higher pressures for I have had it up to 225 psi with no problems. If using a different chamber probably even higher!

thanks man!!!

You went that high on a pvc chamber?

If its rated for it and correctly glued why not, just be careful with it.

I just don't want dangerous plastic shrapnel flying at me.

[jsefcik]

cant you use a blow gun to fire it?


i like the blowgun look alot better

Yes you can but around higher pressures I found that it leaks not around the connection but from the blowgun itself so I would personally just stick with the ball valve. Plus the ball valve exhausts the air a lot faster.

You either have a faulty blowgun or installed wrong.
With these type of dual valves, they are designed for remote activation of up to 10 feet away using a 1/4 inch line.

The ball valve will have little difference in the speed of the main valve.

Probably faulty because I installed like I install my others I guess i'll try it again with a different blow gun.

I have actually just put on a push button exhaust on my asco launcher that I got from McMasters. Works great. You can go as high as the pipe is rated for if you trust your solvent welding skills and well, have a set!!

[8tonsemi]

I don't trust my solvent welding

Thats why I don't go that high of pressure lol. Do you use a compressor to get to that pressure and if you do what type?

[mattyzip77]

I have a compressor to get me to 150-160 and I got the rest of the way with a bike pump. If you dont trust your solvent welding then why are you building cannons?? Its better to use to much than too little!!

[8tonsemi]

I meant for that high of pressure.

What do you guys think about the female piece on the gun is it to banged up and I have a black iron nipple on it what pressure would it be safe to.
