Can I reverse Solvent welding?

I made a cannon the other day and I used a really good shrader.. I only have the rubber ones now(no not the ones for bikes) and they can only go to 50 psi.. I was aiming for 100.. Is there any way I could reverse solvent welding instead of sawing it off...

Ypu can take the rubber ones to 100. Maybe a little epoxy reiforcement?

Why not pull it out with pliers and use a thin piece of wire to feed a new through the hole.

i use the rubber ones and i have got it up to 125 with no problem, but i did have quite a bit of epoxy to reinforce it.

Thanks anyway. I just got a dremel and cut it open. There goes my second cannon.

Dang man, why don't you just buy another schrader...unless I guess if your other cannon was truly worthless.

It was pretty lame. Just a gay ball valve.
