Schreader Valve Position

[MrCrowley]

Where is the best place to place a schrader valve on your pneumatic gun

[noname]

It's easiest to put it in an end cap if your using a tire valve. If your using a threaded schrader then tap it into a fitting that has a pipe in it so that the schrader is in two layers and therefore more stable. If you can't get it through two layers oh well, it's not a huge problem. Just put a small nut in the inside of the pipe so the schrader can't pop out under pressure.

You can also plumb a threaded schrader valve into a reducing bushing.

Like I've done here with my gauge.

ok thanks ive just ripped one outta a bike tyre and ive left some rubber in a circle around it so it gives me some room to put some no-gaps on it

use a metal one with a bolt... i dont think the bike ones are bolted in are they? much safer to use metal ones.

Rubber ones work, but yes, metal ones are the better choice. Here, the metal ones are 10 cents more but oh well. I just go to the bike shop and get all their busted tires for free if I want the rubber kind.
