Size size and size again.

~Rascal'[POLAND] · 12-07-2008, 09:56 AM

Hello!

I have a problem - in fact that two of my power tubes in my trracers broke I need a replacement. So I've found a guy here on mcbrown who has few different power tubes - the problem is that we don't know which size is good for my trracers.
I'm from Poland so I can't check it out by myself

I have two different diameter sizes of powertube so I will need to know which size you will need:
Tubes are .247 and .292.

Anybody knows which I should pick for my trracers ?

Where is that diameter being measured?

I would recommend replacing the back air-adapter assembly with a Phantom assembly. Then all you need to do is modify the power tube to fit the hammer. All that you need to do is cut the tube down to eh same length as the Trrace's and then taper the end.

If you have access to a lathe or know someone who does, it should take you about 10 minutes to do the mod.

Mad Marty: what is the advantage of the Phantom valve body? Or are you using both the Phantom valve and hammer (and bolt too?) in a Trracer?

I believe the valve assembly (internal valve parts) will thread into both Phantom and Trracer valve bodies.

I am sorry I am so long in relying to your guestion. It may be a mute point by now but...for me, the advantage is available parts. the back block and valve parts all work for the trracer. the power tube needs to be cut down, but that is it.

The hammer does not work and my trracer valve seat did not screw into the phantom one I purchased.

So now, if I need a valve part I just use phantom parts...
