To manufacture a manifold is not in its self a problem. All items are available from sources like SwageLoc or Parker. But whom would assume the liability is a good question. The manufacturer of the valve or the person that assembles the parts? Perhaps both. I look at it this way, the Company that purchases the valves and assembles them, or in some cases the company that manufactures a custom valve for a full face mask is going to get my business. Because they are paying for the liability insurance and hopefully will be in business to do the necessary repairs on the system when in need of maintenance. The trend seems to be what can I get cheaper than retail. Every one wants a good deal. My money is to be spent with the company that has done the research and laid out the cash for R&D. After all can you put a cost on you life regards ************************************************************************ Alex Varouxis Associated Design and Manufacturing Co.
