MDE Air Cylinder

Wed Jul 29, 2015 8:49 pm

Does anyone use the MDE Air Cylinder? How have you found it with the supplied regulator. I was having a look at them on the best fittings site?

I have a 3L 300bar MDE cylinder, no problems at all. The valve is smooth and easy to use.
Also got 2 Hydrotech tanks (7L & 3L, both 300bar), again both are smooth and easy to use (had to have the valve changed on the 7lt due to it sticking).

All 3 tanks get a bit lively when they're freshly filled though, caution and a steady hand required

I bought my 12l from BAR, the supplied regulator is fine, no problems.

Most of the cylinders are made by Faber but the MDE valve set up is a good one.

The "Slow fill" one can make life easier, especially when newly filled.

Technical note, they are just valves not regulators on air gun charging kits. ;)
