Fittings and Solenoid Sources?
 

Where do you buy your fittings and solenoids?

Re: Fittings and Solenoid Sources?
 

We used Pneuaire online. Everything came the first few days except the SMC valves. Those come from Japan and it has been 4 weeks. They claim 4-6 weeks, we will see.
The rest of the fittings and valves were competitively priced.

Oddly enough we use Allied electronics for most. We originally started using them, because we were ordering electronics and it was easy to combine the order.
We have links for ourselves at the bottom of this team page if you want to see examples.

http://www.automationdirect.com/ is the source FIRST lists in their "Were To Get More" document on the KOP Website.

Wherever you choose to order from you have to be careful when you order that the item, especially if it's a special one, is in stock, otherwise the lead time is good only for next season...
Ships from Japan are not very quick.

SMC has a massive new distribution center in Indianapolis.

When I need SMC parts I order from Mosier here in town (now MQ Automation) and pick them up at "will call" at SMC. http://www.mqautomation.com

I would be shocked if they didn't have the valves you need.
