Need help finding a adapter

Patriot · 11-27-2012, 07:17 AM

I need help finding a adapter for an American valve stem to a Korean one. I finally found a place to get Co2 from and their equipment can't fit the "1.125-12 UNF-2B" threads on my Co2 cylinder

. The people I asked don't know what size threads they use as a standard over there. If anyone can help me that would be great.

The Japanese standard, and the standard for most parts of Asia (I would imagine including Korea) for CO2 is JIS B 8246.

I don't think an adapter exists, but you can try to see if you can source one.

Thank you so much!! I really hope one exist or I will be left at a dead end.

After hours of searching and looking on Korean brewing forum I learned that there is no adapter. One would think some company would've made one by now but no.
