blown macroline fittings

[h.charlie]

the strangest thing happend today i blew out two macroline fittings the first worked for two or three games then it blew so i replaced it and the second blew a half hour later could it be that the tank is over pressurizing them cause i switch tanks after i fixed the fitting and it seemed to work better

Yes be very carefull and take it somwhere to have it Professionally checked out like Palmers or take it tto a dive shop and have them send it in. Or just have the reg on it replaced at a shop like Synister.

Describe "Blown" ?

the piece that connects to the threaded part comes shooting out

Are they full metal fittings? Who are you getting them from?

I would love to see the blown fittings or the tank. There is obviously some sort of safety issue that needs to be resolved.

Most local shops have some sort of way to testing output pressure. Most will do it for free. My local shop does ;)

yup they are all metal except the oring one is back on my gun that i fixed and the other is missing a part that blew off somewhere in davis
