Re: Re: US Divers Steel 72 Tank Valve Leak (1958)

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ California Scuba Diving BBS ] [ FAQ ]

Avoid pipe dope..Has not been used in the diving community for many years--perhaps as long as 30 years

It is a 1/2 inch tapered thread valve

Often just a 1/4 turn more will seat the valve--note: every time the valve is removed and replaced it will seat lower and less threads will be exposed.

Enjoy diving your new 72 Cuft tank--it has great buoyancy
