PMI trracer valve body length?

[jdswong]

Got a question. Anybody got a PMI Trracer or spare Trracer valve body sitting around and could throw a caliper or tape on the shank that goes in the body? Need to know how long it is. Valve nut on is preferred, but if it's just the valve body, let me know so I can compensate the extra bit of length in my figures. Been tinkering a Frankenstein project and need that dimension to get the hammer throw correct.

I've got 3.23 cm for the valve body itself, and 3.53 cm for the valve body + valve nut.

Thanks! But that seems a bit short for what I was looking for. The part on Bacci's website, linked below, as an example. The whole length of the shaft that goes inside the gun's body. From where it laps down (the ASA section, for lack of a better word) to the valve nut itself (if it was attached in this example) That's what I'm looking for. Looks like 3/4 of an inch or so.

The above measurements were from my dropout changer valve body.

Here's another valve body with calipers in imperial.

I also wrote mm instead of cm above, so that's probably why.

That's perfect! Thanks for taking the time.
