Hi guys , just thought I'd give a heads up on replacement relief valves for Rheem screw top kegs.
After losing a bottle of gas due to a faulty relief valve I started looking into finding a replacement for all 5 kegs.
Anyway the best I could find from a homebrew supplier was $35 per valve which would have cost just under $200 (inc freight) for all five kegs, a bit over the top I thought.
Anyway after much mucking around I worked out that the thread was a 1/4" bsp which is the same size they use in air tool fittings.
I then worked out that I can get ebay air compressor relief valves for about $6.70 in Australia (Inc freight) or $2.60 from China (inc freight).
So if you're after replacement valves for your Rheem screw top kegs, just search ebay for "1/4 BSP air pressure relief valve" & you'll see the cheap replacement valves for your kegs.
Cheers
Russ
