Major Collins · Mon Nov 23, 2009 9:07 am

ok dear friends of spud files who want to help me obtain a qev ? lolol umm i cannot get hold of one (in Australia) its pretty gay i was wondering if someone could sell me a 1/2 inch qev particularly the one that looks like this ?

The only QEV's I have seen are from bellpro. But im pretty sure inonickname already suggested that to you. Your best bet is probably a chance find on ebay

umm very hard to find them on eBay but yeah i note you said chance find ... all the other countries dont ship to Australia :/ (gay if you ask me lol )

Firstly, is there a particular reason you're looking for that kind of QEV?

Secondly, not to be too critical, but "Gay" is not a brilliant insult of choice.

It looks like these QEV arn't too hard too find. In my country at least. This is very strange normally anything I want is hard to come by. It seems a 1/2" QEV would cost me equal to $21 since I have no idea what a valve this size should cost I ask you guys is this a good price? there might be a high pressure air cannon on the way...

What about the one I linked you?

If you don't want to pay $65, make your own piston valve.

umm ive heard those types are very reliable and easier to get hold of
as opposed to one of these types(haven't seen too many on this site)

and well im in high school lol Gay is the best insult at the school grounds XD lol

umm hey Heimo if you dont mind me asking ,where do you live?

and Mr Crowley i wanted to buy a QEV becuase making my own piston valve fail so i gave up and wanted just to buy the qev . + A manufactured qev would have a faster opening time then what i could create ... mine would be fast but the qev would be faster.[/b]

Maybe, but a home made piston will have more flow

Major Collins · Mon Nov 23, 2009 10:20 pm

true.. but that requires me to make it >.< and i have bad experience with trying to make my own piston valve lol so yeah

So why don't you buy the one I linked you? It may be $65 but it's the real deal and looks like the others.

It is possible that their internal construction is almost exactly the same

Could you find an info sheet on them (pdf. files with specs and drawings) ?? I know I've seen it before but I don't know where

Major Collins · Tue Nov 24, 2009 9:20 am

ok which fellow spud filers who live in America or Canada ,would any of you be happy to make a deal with me?:D my proposal is if someone would buy this
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Pneumatic-Quick- ... 3ca578066a

then when the receive it post it back up onto eBay and sell it to me ?

or if anyone can sell me a qev at all lol from anywhere

I suspect it's not feasible due to shipping costs... last time my sister ordered something from AUS the shipping alone was 30$

have you phoned them ?

(there is phone number and their email there if you haven't seen it the first time I posted this)

LEGRIS AUSTRALASIA PTY | Parker Hannifin Australia Pty Ltd 305 Frankston Dandenong Rd Dandenong South - VIC 3175 VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA
Tel. : +613 9768 5555 | Fax : +613 9768 5556 | E-mail : customer.service.au@parker.com

there are international companies selling pneumatic equipment in AUS... if you have factories/industry etc, there have to be...

look for companies (such as rexroth, festo, legris, micro, clippard etc.) selling pneumatic equipment and phone them... quite a lot of them might not like small orders but you won't know that unless you contact them
