NANO check valve
 

Anyone have a good, working extra check valve they would sell? Filled one of our spare nitrous bottles today and the check valve is leaking. text me at (903) 373-1946.

Might have better luck finding a cap for it. That's what I decided to try if mine leaks, I haven't tried mine yet.

That check valve uses a white or clear o ring to seal it.

If you haven't tried this I wouldn't recommend it. After our bottle was full the leak was noticed so they did cap it to allow us to take the bottle. I then had to get the cap off and get the NANO line on in the car. The nitrous leaking out did a job on my fingers. Blistered them up pretty good. Wife and I were supposed to take our CHL class today but there is no way I can hold or shoot a gun with the blisters on my fingertips. Completely my mistake for not using gloves or taking precautions but this is one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. Once this bottle is empty I'll either replace the o-ring as mentioned above or find a new valve.

Good to know. I didn't even think about that.

Yes, we didn't either. Doing some research today I believe I have 2nd degree burn from the nitrous and have 5 large (and PAINFUL) blisters on both thumbs and 3 other finger tips. I'll never deal with a faulty check valve again and I'll handle nitrous with more respect now. I've broken bones, had sports injuries, etc. but having large blisters on yours hands takes the cake.

I might have one I am not using, I won't have a chance until monday to look for it. If I find it, you can have it for free.

Thank you! Let me know.

Found the check valve, hopefully it will work for you, just pm me your address and I will try to send it out to you when I get a chance.

Ouch! I'm sorry to hear that Scott! Hope your hand gets better soon.

Thanks man! Sent you a PM.

Thanks Brandon. They seem to be healing slowly and a little less painful each day. Taking it easy this week. Live and learn. All of my life lessons seem to be either painful or expensive. Sometimes both!

I too am missing a check valve. does anyone know if I can use a universal check valve from Summit or Jegs. Would any one way check valve work? Rated to 3k psi
