Canadian Airgun Forum

I have a couple 13/48 ci 3000 tanks. Output 750-850 psi. 5/8 18 unf threads. I want to up them to 1000-1200 psi output.

The only high output regulators I can find in Canada have M18 1.5 threads.

There are some I can order from China that fit my needs.

Would you trust them?

There should be 2 release disc on your Reg. one for tank release which should be 4.5k and the reg max at 1.8 k. If your reg is made with bellville washers then you can shim or reconfigure the washers to any pressure below 1800 psi. If the tank is empty , you can then remove the set screws and unscrew the top to examine the spring. Most paintball shops will have shims. If it has a coil spring there is not much than can be done. I have shims in .01mm .02mm and .03mm and bellville washers in 2 different thicknesses.

I have purchased quit a few regs from china for 4500 psi tanks with preset at 1800 psi, I have then fine adjusted them for my needs. I have 1 left that is on a 4500 psi tank set at 1500 psi that was for my Gauntlet on range days. I have purchased them from herehttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005184634671.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.21.292e5c5axcaFGA&algo_pvid=bc17921e-a6e7-47c3-b9a9-855f96a09fed&algo_exp_id=bc17921e-a6e7-47c3-b9a9-855f96a09fed-10&pdp_npi=3%40dis%21CAD%2135.7%2117.49%21%21%21%21%21%4021227e5116829666044602448d07c6%2112000032018754369%21sea%21CA%214381166741&curPageLogUid=0Bvb5cL01oRi

Bob has done a write up on his shimming with Ninja Regulators you will find it, if you do a search. My work on regs have been with multiple brands and they are all very similar.

Depending on the type of paintball shop in your city-town they may have they ability to shim or reconfigure. If you over shim the reg the valve will not close and the air will go to max pressure and burst the disc. I have a micro bottle and a gauge block so I can use only a small amount of air and test the output pressure. Sometimes it may take 3 tries to get the exact desired pressure.

Hope this helps

Thanks Robert that helps a lot.

The regs I was looking at were on aliexpress. If you used them and they were ok, I feel more confident ordering them.

For now I'm going to take a shot at shimming. I found Bob's post

When you say you have shims, do you mean you sell them?

I don't sell them but I can send you some. Take it apart and post a picture of the washer stack. There should be some shims in the stack they are usually red and blue shims

Robert

Thanks for the offer Robert. If I need them I'll let you know.
