Any other wand valves that will fit that stupid prochem bracket?

[jcooper]

I have a new to me prochem wand. It needs a valve and a few other things...

Just wondering, are there other valves that will fit the prochem wand bracket?



Most replacement valves are off by just enough that they wont fit the bracket, has anyone just drilled the bracket to make other valves work?

Had the same issue on prochem stair tool, valves just don't fit. I'm sure they planned it this way, $100+ is a little much for a prochem valve.

Any ideas?

Hi Jerry,
I wanted to ditch Schrader valves to install Paraplate on some wands a while back. My welder cut the old hangers off and put new ones on that could fit Paraplate. Since then, however, we have ditched the Paraplate and use Butlers new valves that fit the Paraplate hangers. Butler valves are great, really stand hi heat well and last way longer than any valves we've ever used.

Here's where you can get Paraplate hangers:

I too switched out my prochem valves to west pack. Go with what John is offering, that's what I did. Best thing ever, valves kits last way far better.

John or anybody,

Please tell me this sprayer bracket does not need to be welded?

 

[John Olson]

You mean the spacer? Nope it just goes between the bracket and the valve and the bolts go through it

Order it and when you get it, it will make perfect sense and if not call me

Jerry;

We use the SS 'soft touch" valves also:

Also have them in brass.

Some customers just use spacer washers, but the plates are easier to install.
