3/4" QEV's ?

I am looking for a 3/4" QEV that is as compact as possible. I am shooting for a QEV that isn't as tall as the Deltrols from McMaster carr http://www.antennalaunchers.com/TBL-QEV28C-01.jpg .

There seems to be slim pickins for these types of valves, and yes I have googled for probably 5 hours looking.

I have seen the 3/4" 3 ways that are Square http://www.mvspc-pneumatic.com/images/p ... /qe_03.jpg ,
and seem to have a lower profile for what I need, but when finding where to buy them seems Impossible or I might have to buy 100+ and they are coming from another country ( Scary ).
I don't mind spending the extra money for one if neccessary, if it's going to accompish what I need.

Also it seems it is not very popular to list the dimmentions of these valves. Even McMaster doesn't list the dimmentions on the Deltrols, I had to google it seperatly to find it ( The 1/2" and 3/4" for the record are the same size just differant openings ).
I have also seen them in Stainless, and that's also a big plus for me but not a must have.

Looking for 150 psi plus rating ( But some of you I have noticed put way more to them than what they are rated and seem to do okay )

Can anyone help a fella out ?
Thanks

I'm not sure if it's the size you're looking for, but these valves are the ones I use. The 3/4" ones are about 2.25" tall and 3.5" long.

I was just looking at those earlier... Even though they say tube x tube are they still threaded?
