Tank Valve Insert DIN/INT

Description

This small screw-in insert decides whether a cylinder valve takes a yoke regulator or a DIN one. Screwed in, the valve accepts a yoke; taken out, the full DIN thread is exposed. That means one rack of cylinders can serve divers on either fitting, and a dive centre filling for a mixed group turns the rack over with a key and a few minutes rather than keeping a second set of cylinders. Two practical points come with it. The insert seals into the valve body on an o-ring, and a weep at that joint is far more often the o-ring than the insert itself. And it is fitted and removed with the correct insert key, never a screwdriver dropped into the slot, which is what rounds out the drive and marks the sealing face. Swapping it opens a pressure joint, so it belongs with a qualified cylinder technician. It suits a dive centre or technician serving divers on both fittings.
