About this deal
Sometimes, the valve can be cross-threaded, or occasionally kayak material can interfere with a tight seal.
Will pump up an inflatable kayak or paddle board faster than the single action pump or bellows foot pump. A flap inside the valve opens when air is pumped into the kayak, and falls shut when not pumped so that air will not rush back out.Born out of a small kite production operation started by Jeff Howard, PKS Distribution has progressed into a distributor and design team for high end kiteboarding products.

Many inflatables come with a wrench in the repair kit, which you can use to tighten the valve back on. We field questions almost daily on different types of air pumps and inflation tools, and whether or not to use a pressure gauge or valve adaptor. Read your kayak instruction manual to find out the optimum pressure for each chamber in your inflatable kayak. It fits to all valves with inner diametre from 17mm to 19mm, like new large boston valves, Cabrinha Airlock 2 or new Slingshot speed inflation valve.
I have about 3kg of ASA filament sitting in my stash though and when I’m finished making an enclosure for the printer, which is the current project I’m working on, I’ll see how well it prints. By turning to the “open” position (push pin is down), air can be pumped in, but it will also be released when the pump adaptor is removed. Please also note that these work on back-pressure, meaning certain type valves – such as Boston valves with closing flaps – will not read all the time, only when pumping.The chambers that are most sensitive are the smaller chambers, and the floors with “i-beams” – these are the lower pressure PVC floors with seams running lengthwise.
