Good morning KevG,
I live in Italy and ask where I can buy a valve for the Rapid caliber 6.35 filtered model,
if information about the price is available.
Thank you.
can do you a valve and stem thats better than the filter version.also comes with return spring and guide to fit the wider bore valve blanking cap..they are £42 plus postage.
KevG
Well, Yes, prepare me everything you have advised me, I send you the payment with PayPal,or by bank transfer.
How can I contact you privately to give you my account?,and my personal data?.
Thank you.
You can find my email address in my profile.
Thank you.
if you do one more post you can pm.

Good morning KevG,
I thought the filter valve system was better than the unfiltered system!,however you told me that switching to the unfiltered system is possible and even better. Now I'm going to send you a request with a PM.
Thank you,
Greetings to everyone.
Hi KevG,
I am always waiting for your contact to define the purchase!
Hi giacomo50.
kevG is in his workshop working on your order and will respond to this post later on today.
Regards kev.
sorry m8.been on lathe all day.just out of the oven and fresh😁
KevG
KevG, cleared of work, I'm always waiting to pay you for this blessed valve!.
Good morning KevG,
I see the attached photo and I wonder if the seat has been made for the small side screw position so that the valve body can not move.
Thank you.
yes of course
KevG
Another top job.md

The main reason for switching, if KevG didn't tell. you...
The filter used, Sintered Bronze, is known to break apart from use..
The small pieces will scratch the valve face, causing an Air Leak!
So KevG valve Stem and body will be a Great improvement to your Rapid!
Good Luck,
Stuart

Very good explanation,Stuart.
Thank you.
I wonder if rapid came out in the first edition without a filter, because if the filtered system had been put in the second edition it would have been a great mistake!,in fact it should have protected against any damage due to accidental impurities present in the air!,while paradoxically it is the small fragments of the same bronze filter that damage the valve beat.
Greetings to everyone.
Well this only Major Mistake Theoben Made with the Rapid!
The Filter started in the S-Type Rapid!
At that point, there was huge wave of modification over here in the USA
To remove the filter!!!
They didn't hold up to FAC/High Power levels!

I ask if the change necessarily also involves the change of the valve or the valve for the filtered system with appropriate modification (which I would like to know) can still be used until exhaustion?. In fact I still have a valve for the filtered system, if possible any suggestion to implement the modification using this valve and abolishing the bronze filter. Thank you.
I remember when I was removing them first of and every other so called experts were at a loss why.all followed though

Hi Kev,
Would this type of valve be a suitable replacement for the original valve in a late model MFR
Thanks,
Ken
yes Ken m8
KevG
I don't suppose you could see your way to making me one please. No rush, my MFR is fine, just thinking about the future
Many thanks,
Ken
