Small guage on tank

[jay1988]

Anyone know where to get the protective covers for the small pressure gauges from ?

There was the Rufus Dawg selection of tank protectors, but I have not seen their regulator cover for nearly a decade

 

 

 

 

I recommend fitting a rubber fill nipple cover, and a cylinder thread protector when transporting & storing 

 

I think that I have only needed to change one of my gauges once in 15 years

You inspired me to have a look around.

 

The Rufus Dawg set is available still in the US:

Not necessarily worth the international postage, but if you add something else (and avoid too much to incur import charges!)

 

But on practicality - yes, just add a thread protector

 

You also inspired me to get around to looking around the US sites, and I found the right tools & rebuild kit for an old pistol.  When they arrive that will be a winter project and I’ll get another one of my vintages our to play
