Are the Radnor regulators good ones??? I have a guy that said he would give me a brand new Radnor regulator that goes to 600 psi (i know thats overkill) for building him some simple shock mounts...

In your guys opinion which one is the best one?

not much at all... should be really simple...

But I would like to know that it is a good quality regulator... all i know about it is that airgas sells them...

I think its a cheaper one built by Harris

I've had a Radnor on my truck for over 2 years and had no problems. Most of the ones in our shop are Radnors, 4-5 of them and all work great. Radnor is Airgas's main brand, been around for a long time.

Radnor is a subsidiary brand similar to hobart and miller, they are actually a very popular in the welding induastry the welding fabricating shop I used to work in a several different radnor products and they always performed well with minimal problems
