WTB: Regulator Body

Post by mattvincent24 » Sun Sep 15, 2013 7:19 pm

One of my regulators formed a hairline crack on the body and started to leak. As all of the rest of the regulator components work, so I'm looking for just a body. Anyone know where i could find one?

Chudnow from keg connection. Don't most regulators have the same threads and stuff? Didn't think the brand mattered.

I'm surprised you could crack the body...

yeah that's weird. how long have you had it? did it arrive that way? sometimes vendors are good about it, and if you contact them they might help you out - if they've had a reg arrive with broken dials, they might have a spare body...

the body is stamped hi, low ect with a metal punch. The crack runs from the "H" to the high pressure out. Im asuming that when the word Hi was punched into the metal, it weaken it, and the cracked formed over the last couple of years. As for sending it back, the duties and taxes will probably cost as much as a new one.
