Re: Anyone ever use air ride valve block?

as usual no help other than my 2 cents.
Easy to install
Show quality look
Anodized aluminum body
1/8" NPT ports seems small
Zinc plated mounting bracket
Kip solenoid valves
Stainless steel solenoid body
Buna seals
Built in desiccate air dryer your cylinder
Easy to follow installation instructions
Made in the USA


im sure it works but as with everything you dont see in Truckin's thousands of pages of endorsments you just have to try it.

Re: Anyone ever use air ride valve block?

The gold one is from Arnott, I sell them. Very nice piece, but very slow. The cylinder is a desicant drier. These guys build OEM style stuff, speed is not there concern. Very nice and knowledgable people. Built a badass digital setup, but again very slow. the red one I wouldn't put on anything personally. Asco or Accuair is all we do here, NO PROBLEMS

Re: Anyone ever use air ride valve block?

the bottom picture is of a spool valve. Intended for high volume industrial use in an extremely clean atmosphere and climate controlled enviroment. I wouldnt run them.. if you do I would keep an O ring rebuild kit on hand with tools
