Question Yoke Adapter

[North_Georgia_Diver]

Do any manufacturors sell a Din first stage that includes a Yoke adapter?

I don’t know, but why not just buy a DIN-to-yoke adapter separately? For example:

DIN-to-Yoke Spin-on Adapter

Use this spin-on adapter to connect any 200 Bar or 300 Bar DIN first stage regulator fitting to a yoke-type cylinder K-valve.

Yes. Or at least they did. When I bought a regulator back in 2003 or 2004 (Zeagle), I bought it in DIN version and it came with an adapter.

As pointed out above, any of the adapters will work.

While any adaptor will work, not all adaptors are the same. Many of the cheaper adaptors are cast and as such the threads are rough and will cut into the chrome plating. Definitely a case of you get what you pay for.

I have Apeks regulators and just spent the money to buy their adapter. Much higher quality than the generic options.

I purchased my Poseidon Odins ~1994. They came in 300 Br DIN, but came with a Yoke adapter (and a padded storage/carrying bag.

Whether this is still the case, ...

how do you cast threads

I go ocean diving and all my din regs and valves have long lost their thread chrome

how do you cast threads

Internal spin-out cores that are removed after casting, then chase tapped to finish.

I have heard of people who wanted a DIN conversion on there regulator. The tech unscrewed the yoke adaptor. Conversion done.

There are people out there with DIN regulators that don't even know it.

Thanks everyone, I'm going to but the reg I want and just go with a conversation separately.
