Re: Air valve

How fast does it have to let the air move? 1/4" valves might be fine....althought they would require you to add reducers


We made a 1" valve using a pneumatic cylinder and a gate valve...but that was to launch T shirts, so it had to move a lot of air almost instantaneously. If you have a few seconds to move the air, then a small valve will work
