Those are fill adapters and really not intended to be used with diving! Maybe folks do it, but every one says NOT FOR DIVING...
Thank you very much for letting me know about that. I will only use my yellow steel tanks for filling up paintball guns. I won’t use it for diving.

Would something like this work to use as a valve on my yellow tanks to fill up paintball guns? Only

I just don’t know how the scuba tank can fill these valves. The price is right

PST is the Manufacturer. They made 3500 service pressure tanks, different from most other steel SCUBA tank manufacturers.
 
I don't do paintball/Pneumatic guns, but a quick search gave something like this:

Oh sorry I wasn’t to clear. I have the adapter that sits on the top already that attaches to the yoke. I just need a new valve to be able to hook it into. That one above kinda had it all but I asked the scuba shop and he said he would need to make a adjustment to his fill whip to make it work. So I’m going different route. And try and find the valve.

Thank you for your time and help
 
My 3,500psi tanks have the 7/8" neck thread, which is smaller in diameter than the usual 3/4" thread, despite the fractions themselves indicating otherwise. The numbers are from two different systems of measurement & do not compare directly. My 7/8" valves accept DIN only & can't be used with the little inserts that convert most modern DIN valves to be compatible with yoke regulators.

I regularly use a DIN to Yoke conversion adapter on my steel PST tanks to test and tune my yoke dive equipment prior to travel. I do not dive these tanks using the insert, that would not be safe. I dive them using DIN regulators. But for paintball air transfers the insert should be fine.

I will check, but I use something similar to the XS-Scuba DIN Filler adapter. It does work for this purpose.

FYI: For future Hydro, note the Pressed Steel Tanks require a special permit authorization which has been updated periodically for the past 10 years. Currently authorization is good until 9/30/2022:
