I got it at my Parker store for $26.
Culverco brand

Parker SS valves are $68. ( but 2000WOG)!

Busted the male-male hex on mine after about 6 months. EZ-Out the broken piece, insert new male-male hex and 4 months later the damn thing is still holding pressure. I carry a spare in the van just in case.

I betcha it will go a year

2000 WOG's eh?

it's stamped 1000
are WOGs double PSI?

Water, Oil, Gass

BTW, a dude that works at Parker (right down the road from me) told me they pressure test at 3 times ratings

Here's a candidate:

Stainless Steel 1/4" FM Pipe
Short Handle for solution line
Steam Rated for the fire-breathers
Reinforced Teflon

Here's a larger stainless one rated for 800° that we use on our HX system.

The HUGE handle would be a PITA at the wand. I currently use the small Parkers with the little yellow handles. They work well until you try to crank up the pressure for T&G work. Then the leaks start.

Some company out there, somewhere, has to have a decent valve that can take the PSI and the heat, and they aren't HUGE....

These are the best that I found. Use 2000 psi on pavers and they last a long time.

I haven't hunted in years and years.
i wasn't going to tell you this, but i went hunting this morning with some friends.

The Pheasant jumped and flew past FOUR hunters lined up.
An EASY crossing shot at less than 30 yards.

all four blasting away at it's TAIL FEATHERS!
(them boyz need to shoot a little more often, me thinks)

I shouldered my trusty Remington and BANG LIGHTS OUT!
the rooster dropped like stone 25 yards in front of me.

AND...I'll use the feathers to tie some flies and pester some trout! :mrgreen:

I haven't had pheasant in over 15 years. Sounds good. I need to drop some this year.

It won't happen though, I'm a terrible shot.
