looking for fill adapter for Edgun
Hello-
anyone have an extra fill adapter for Edgun, the 1/8 BSPP with quick disconnect? Put an order on Pyramyd air since 2/25 ad still back ordered. Put another order at another site and after 2 days just got cancelled.
thanks,

I am the first to post I’ll take it for $10 + shipping?
I noticed the EdGun fill probe end is tapered (inside) and will mess with the delrin seal on the PA item.
Helps to add some teflon tape as cheap insurance (but keep it up high to be SURE it doesn’t get into the rifle)… 😉
Yes the issue is really with the smaller nut on the KalibrGun probe. I bet KalibrGun expects the delrin washers to be used inside. I’ll email them but its really not a big deal.
I have one of Joe’s adaptors on a R3.5 Edgun fill probe using the Dowdy seal and have had no issues.
Joe – I believe most of us have the adapters. We are just looking for the delrin seals to make them work better.
Instead of sending with the o-ring like above, I’ll start sending them with the delrin seal like in this picture: (And mine are STAINLESS STEEL) and always in supply.
The first person to respond to this post will get one for $10 + ship. If its ok, I’ll put your name in this post.
The filling probe for Edgun is the same as for HW100 (Weihrauch/Beeman)

Funny story abour hardware stores. I built a light sport class airplane and used a lot of aviation grade rivets. A guy at my hangar bought a used plane and used Ace Hardware rivets all over the elevator hinges and assembly that were loose. He wouldnt listen. Luckily, a tornado got his airplane before It had a failure in the air.
Joe where can we find those delrin washers locally?

NOOOOOO!!!!!!! NEVER go to a hardware store!!!!
That statement genuinely scares me!!!! Hardware stores (unless it is some kind of super duper place I have never heard of)
1) only carry 150 PSI stuff.
2) NEVER have BSPP threads which differ by one thread 28 TPI vs. 27.
That’s an easy fix. I used to sell them with a Dowdy seal, but If the shafts on the cricket are too long and prevent the o-ring from making contact, all you needt to do is let me know (I don’t have a Cricket)

The right HPA washer like the delrin washer in the Air Venturi might work in Joe’s adapter. Tell us what you find.
Still waiting from Pyramyd Air. In the mean time,, I’ll head to the local hardware and see what other adapters might work.
I have one of Joes and they tend to leak around the threads even with some teflon tape. The external gasket/oring Joe includes doesn’t work with the small brass nut on the Cricket probe. It takes a good wrap to seal the threads and a lot of us have fought leaks (it took me four attempts to stop the leaking). The Air Venturi ones at Pyramyd are half price and have a delrin washer inside to seal with the probe. Go with the Air Venturi ones…

Lets see $20 shipping and handling to Texas. 😀 Just kidding.
Give Joe a call!
