Sportsways Hydro Twin II exhaust valve?

Fri Aug 11, 2017 9:34 pm

Hello,
I have recently come into possession of another Sportsways Hydro Twin II and one of the things that this reg needs is a new exhaust valve as the other one had a very large crack in it and had the consistency of a cracker! Anyone have any ideas as to where to get one? They are just about 1 3/16" in diameter. I know I can get similar sized valves used in other regs but was looking for an correct replacement first.
Any ideas please just drop me a line. . . . .

Thanks!

I have 3 Waterlungs and used a 33mm exhaust diaphragm. Even though your diameter is 30.1625mm approximately, you have more than enough flat surface on the exhaust plate.

Try these guys.

Thanks for the suggestion. . . . I had been tempted to try a 33 or 34mm (scubapro ?) purge valve but wasn't sure how reasonable the idea was.
