Flow Stop

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to get a Flow Stop for my second stages? I am located in Canada but I don't mind buying on line.

Thanks

Rob

Hi Rob

Get in touch with IDC in Vancouver. I've bought one there.

Email Royce at info@diveidc.com

The other place to try is http://www.mj-engineering.com/shop/index.php. I have a couple of theirs and they are well made.

I actually replaced the one I had on my Evo because I liked the more positive slide action of the M&J one better than the AP version.

I have a question about using these. I have one on my CCR where it feeds the ADV, and it has worked perfectly.

I then installed them on my drysuit hose and on my offboard gas hoses. I noticed that I can't really screw down the connector (downstream of the cutoff valve) to a point where it screws into the inlet of a regulator tightly (in part since it does not use a fitting that requires a traditional wrench but hand-tightening instead). I was wondering if an o-ring is supposed to go under the threaded inlet screw connector on the second stage in order to create some friction, keeping the cutoff valve screw connector from loosening over time.

I just had a second stage that came off during a dive after deploying and stowing the regulator over the course of a few dives (doing drills

). So, I added an o-ring, and this seemed to make it so that I could screw it down tightly in a way to keep it from loosening. Anyone else?

If you are using o-rings, what size have you been using? So far, I am using the one that would go over the second stage inlet for a ScubaPro regulator. It is not a precise fit but seems to work well enough.
