More 6 inch powerjets and flares out the door.
Still impressed with how good the inside comes out .
Also discovered these pvc swing check valves .
They are available female female bsp .2 inch is only $60 odd retail price . Rated to plenty of pressure and very non restrictive.
Could be good foot valves.
I want them on my pumps as my pumps can fight each other through the manifold on the 24 nozzle jet and it’ll blow a foot valve off if I throttle one motor up too much before the other . Traditional non returns are expensive. Heavy. Restrictive or all 3
Is anyone interested in 6 inch ID 3mm wall thickness stainless tube for making power jets . About $300 a meter .
It is spiralweld. Is the only option for true ID sizes
Also I’m buying the same in 2mm wall thickness so now can offer pe powerjets that fit into an existing keene flare.
Raw hose or keene collet slip fit on the other end available
Trio of 4 inch ID flares heading all over the country this week.
5/6 mm thick throughout. Bare flare for an old 4 inch undersized powerjet is 2.8 kg .
One with a sleeve to fit 4 inch hose on a suction nozzle.
Most important one is powerjet and flare one piece 4 inch ID and waay over sized collet for the convoluted suction hose . 4.5kg
Ive since learned that proline state their onepiece jet and flare units outlast steel jets by 4_5 times over and they’re relatively thin so one piece every size is the go.
6 mm if ya wanna carry it.
11 mm for normal ideas.
14mm thick if you want super duty
Yea so there goes the 8 inch setup.
Recently made this over built asf 6 inch.
Stainless sleeve to fit inside existing keene flare.
180 silicon bends to suit existing pressure hose lengths
They’ll perform fine .they are full flow smooth 180s and a bellmouth into nozzles
Ive since found some larger radius 180 bends
Developing a 4 inch dredge based on similar style to mine . Single 250 diameter pipe float per side
Engine on 2 cross bars like a proline .
Powerjet can pull out easily so you can drag the whole lot around without it acting like the cockle digger on a short legged dog
All 3 cross bars identical.
Floats are symmetrical
rear bar adjusts box angle up and down the rear wall of float.
Float rear wall recessed so you can drag them down the road and not eat into the sealed chamber.
250 diameter float is 6kg per meter
First one is getting towed behind a jetski shortly so look out .
Bonus Pic of a new chang compressor converted to “elevated intake pipe “ spec.
Also ill tell you all for free those compressors 5000% need a decent relief valve close to them . It easily blew my gauge off the chart
Next weekend theres going to be a flow and pressure test of a p180 on a gx200 v dong wei 180 on chonda vs Dong wei 180 on a titan 6.5 hp and probably a titan wx20 because I happen to have one
Can tell you now the dong wei (or copy? Of a copy of a dong wei) has far shorter throw in the vanes. Itll either use more hp and flow more or itll just cavitate more at lesser flows than a genuine p180
Probably should get in the river . Oh well its only getting warmer and the price is only going up
