i was thinking of running my own co2 i already have the tank that is used and can get hte adapter it is just that i use my tank for welding and i use a 75% co2 and 25% MIX to help the welding wil this run through a paintball gun ok thanks for all replys

paintbug

i believe what you have is a gas mix. you need liquid CO2 100%. you will also need one with a syphon or dip tube installed. ask your welding supply they can help you with any questions.

It might work. What's the mix gas?

Liquid Co2 in a large tank might be cheaper in the long run though. At a local hardware store they do a 25lb cylinder exchange for $12 once you buy your own tank ($60ish)

thanks for the replys but i emailed kingman and the tech guy said it will work we just need a fill station and a digital gauge so thanks again oh and i was a 25% argon mix

paintbug

well the guy at kingman is wrong! what you have is a GAS not LIQUID. you need a LIQUID CO2 tank, fill station and a scale that can read oz.

what we have is a liquid co2 and argon mix so all we have to get is a syphon tank and the station and gauge thanks.

You could probably make do without a syphon tube if you tip the tank valve downwards before filling. I think it actually makes filling easier since you don't have all of the gas in the syphon tube pressurizing the PB tank before you get to the liquid. There's a slightly higher chance of getting debris into the PB tank but it hasn't been a problem for me yet. Good luck to you.
