TAKING ORDERS FOR SAFETY AND STARTER VALVES
I am setting up to make runs of safety and Starter valves, for delivery in early spring.
I only make 40 of each at a time so if you need either type please send your request.
The Safeties can be set to pressures from 95# to 140#. If ordering two valves they should have a difference of 5# each.
PM me if interested Thanks Dave

Re: TAKING ORDERS FOR SAFETY AND STARTER VALVES
I have a few safety valves in stock but need to be set. Is there anyone that would like to place an order?

Re: TAKING ORDERS FOR SAFETY AND STARTER VALVES
I have one set of safety valve left from this run set to 120 and 125. These are the last for a while. My test boiler blow a tube and I use the K4 to set them not easy when using a coal fired boiler.
I will be re tubing the test boiler soon.

Re: TAKING ORDERS FOR SAFETY AND STARTER VALVES
Sorry Tristan
I had a problem with the test boiler it blew a tube. I have 30 valves assembled and ready to test. I will be fixing the boiler soon. I have quite a few customers needing safety valves. Looks like the Mercer safety is catching on.
What pressures do you want 120 125?
