Need 1/4" Schrader Valve For Dacor Bc

[ronski101]

I am looking for a schrader valve for my wife's Dacor BC. The local dive shop didn't have one. Dacor has been out of business since 2003? The Shrader valve is like the one used is car and bike tires where you put the air in but this one for some unknown reason is a larger diameter being .250" instead .200". Any suggestions out there?

Try Grainger they have everything. looks cost prohibitive $6.42 for a pack of 10.

At almost 6.50 you might as well ditch the bc and buy a new one or better a BP/W

Instead of throwing away a still good BCD, you can think of changing the full power inflator assembly by a standard new one.

Sounds like a truck tire valve. Go to a truck tire shop. (Real Truck, not Pickup Truck ) They probably have tray full of take offs. The volume of air in a truck tire makes a large valve useful.

I tried replacing the power inflator on my dacor a year or so ago... neither of the 2 tried fit properly on the hose. I didn't hunt too hard for the valve. Ended up buying a bpw from the man above who suggested the truck tire store The bc didn't really owe me anything anyway...
