Do a Google search for industrial supply companies in your area. If you want individual valves they will have them. It wouldn't be my first choice, but they are out there.

Get ready to pay thru the nose, but Fastenal can order SMC or Parker valves for you in 12 VDC ... highly unlikely they will have them in stock.

I would almost be willing to bet our forum vendors will have better prices INCLUDING the shipping.

Grainger always has everything, but again, usually expensive.

I thought they also only did wholesale?




I keep ASCO valves in stock. You can get them locally at the Peterbuilt shop out here, but they sell them for nearly twice as much as I do. Someone started talking, because I have been getting more and more people asking if I sell diaphragm valves that aren't wanting them for air ride.

yeah, forgot about that, I have an account through them though. Just need a tax id, or most places I worked for have always had an account as well.

Do you have any Princess Auto store around. I bought mine on sale for $23 each I think. Been running them for two years no problem.
