This purpose-built performance regulator and handle kit designed for 10 lb Co2 tanks utilizes the Series 1000 high flow fixed flow brass regulator with a robust quick connect primarily designed for filling large offroad tires. Compare this non-freezing regulator output of 40CFM at 150PSI to a typical compressor rated at 4-5CFM with a maximum pressure of 150PSI. PREECE PRECISION will get you back on the trail without electricity – airing up tires, re-seating a bead, or running an impact. Specifications: Designed for Carbon Dioxide (Co2) High flow capacity 40CFM (cubic feet per minute) Non-freezing under normal conditions Fixed Flow Static 150PSI CGA320 Tank Connection Soft seal washer included Brass body Brass tank connection Heavy duty universal brass quick connect 1/4″ plugged accessory high pressure port. The handle will adapt to any small neck CO2 or Nitrous style tank with 1 5/8” neck. It can be used with larger neck aluminum cylinders such as 2 3/8” thru 2.60″ but will require you to supply longer bolts easily found at any hardware store. (These larger necks are found on cylinders that you remove a plastic handle). Fits 5# 10# 15# and 20# aluminum beverage cylinders. WARNING: All accessories connected to the quick connect outlet MUST be designed for 150PSI WORKING PRESSURE. FAILURE to use correct components can result in product failure and personal injury. Gas expands with increased temperature. Bleed all residual gas from lines after use to avoid damage and hose failure.

Awesome handle for my DIY CO2 air tank system for airing up after a day of wheeling. Fits 5 and 10 Lb tanks. Looks great. Easy to install.

I don’t like to write reviews but this one should be read by the vendor. The handle appears nice when you open it up despite the poor packaging at some point in the parts life cycle. My handle had a big chip of paint missing where the handle hit the floor prior to packaging. This in and of itself is not important, its the poor assembly and hardware used that makes the product unusable to some. The handle was assembled with stainless screws in what is probably some soft 6061 aluminum, without any anti-seize lubricant and tight! When the bolt was removed it pulled a burr and ripped the threads out. One drop of lubricant would have made all the difference. Stainless hardware is crap and should be inspected prior to installation. I drilled the hole out and installed a self locking helicoil. In my opinion the threads should have been inserts to start with. Customers like myself that will remove the handle from time to time when a tank is exchanged will have the same issues eventually.Could have been a good product if an extra couple dollars was spent up front. I would not recommend this product unless you plan to fix its flaws prior to putting into service.

I mounted this on a 5lb tank and it works great. I didn’t have any of the reported problems with the threads, though it makes sense that they could be damaged if tightened enough.
