Action Tech dry valve

[FluffyChicken]

Has anyone found, stumbled upon, printed, bodged anything to replace perished valves in the action tech dry valve setup.
It's just a black rubbery pyramid thing.
Could pick then up new for a few quid 10years ago.

I don't imagine it' was a custom part for ActionTec, probably something industrial off the shelf.

Looks like some sort of rubber check, relief or breather valve.
They're usually a flat rather than conical, referred to as a duckbill check valve.
All the best,

What sort of dimension is the part? I was involved in a seal manufacture in the plumbing world exactly that concept....low pressure release.

I was thinking it may be off the shelf back then

For reference, the hole you drill is 5/16" that the rough part pressure fits in to (it stainless steel).

One tick...
Now RB is working for me again, after the last few mins being down.

I'll grab the two frames and see which is easier to get the valve out of.
