    Default WTB: Unknown Burst Disk & OMS Manifold Caps

    Looking to obtain a burst disk for an old PST LP104 that was overfilled on a hot day. I've checked the local shops to no avail, and I'd like to be able to get some use out of the tank without sourcing a new valve. The original hydro of the tank is from the 70's, if that helps. I've attached a few pictures of the disc assembly for reference as well.

    Also looking for the infamous OMS manifold caps to isolate a set of doubled HP100's. Part number V112. The usual channels seemed to have dried up, and while I'd love to invest in a lathe and make them myself, for now this is the most economically friendly option. Will also consider trading the tanks complete with manifold/bands for an equivalent sidemount setup.

    I have a set of FX-100s (3442) set up for sidemount (opposite valves) that I might be interested in trading for a complete set of HP 100 doubles. Shoot me some pics and specs of those tanks with info like born on dates, Manufacturer, last hydro, DOT spec, Last VIP, Pressure rating (3500 or 3442), valve thread size (3/4 or 7/8), How much salt water vs cave diving have they been in, anything else you might think of...

    The burst disc will be valve specific rather than tank specific. What brand valve is in the tank? Looks like the disc could be Sherwood but hard to tell on my phone.

    It is a Sherwood valve.

    Status on the caps looks pretty bleak, so I'd be willing to trade the HP100's and a small amount of coin for a set of LP85's or LP95's. Don't have them in front of me, but I know the hydro is good for at least 3 more years. 7/8" thread, 3500, VIP/O2 cleaned/manifold serviced about 8-9 months ago.

    You didn't check with me! Bring the disk assembly with you in the morning. I may have what you need.
