5mm thread.

All ports are the same sized thread, so hyd connector Part Number VVV-S0016 would work.

Before you make the leap of faith of purchasing this valve, have a look at the guts, reply #742.

Default Re: I need a second opinion.

interesting , the machining on that valve is ----poor for a vital component of the hydro system . I don't understand the purpose of the recess next to the 1 port I got 3 of the robbe valves which need the 2 end blocks for complete assembly or a new solid base made like the verio setup ( not a problem for me with a little time and care ) . the issue with them is , It seems difficult to get the fine thread m5 fittings for 6/4 mm tubing .

I would be interested to hear if you would complain about the "other" RC semi&construction website, they sell Tamiya parts...they don't manufacturer them...would you complain that they can't supply you with enough info?

Justin,
Are you serious? Stay on subject. If they sell the original product, they should
be prepared to provide knowledge, parts and service after the sale. These are important tenets of operating a business.

They should show some professionalism.

I will give them credit I received a reply today with the info requested and got the same answer Joe gave us 5mm. To be honest I know multiple individuals reply to their email (I know this form previous experience) so I am guessing the first individual to reply had know idea what the part was even with a part # but they did come through and I appreciate their effort. My only real point was that they asked me to take a pic of the part I wanted to possibly buy and if I had the part to take a pic I would not have needed them to measure it. I did buy a valve to give it a shot.

Thanks Joe for the info much appreciated.

Travis

It's not a smooth operating valve, it's either flowing or not!
