AP make their valves with burst discs fitted, BUT the valves have a 3/4 NPSM thread for cylinders for Australia/USA.

The AP/Buddy Valves sold in "burst disk areas" have them.

You might be able to get a better price on the T D Preece valves from Sea Hornet <http://www.seahornet.com/scuba/valvesmanifolds.htm>, but don't tell them you're planning to use them on a rebreather - they're very leery of rebreathers, and don't want to sell anything to rebreather divers, if they can help it.

cheers...

My experience with TD Preece and Sea Hornet has been the converse. They have helped me out with many requests and have even machined custom valves for me that were for some 300 bar 2 litre tanks. They are very rebreather friendly in my, Steam Machine's and the Royal Australian Navy's experience.

As a company I dislike them though, as they made/make a terrible DIN K valve that has had numerous thread failures during filling and in use. They refuse to recall and replace these faulty valves. These are one item to stay away from
