Vacuum gauge blunder

[A100man]

Lent out (or lost) my previous 4 gauge set..

bought a cheap replacement set that looks ok.. BUT
the set came without the critical damper valves (white in pic)

Have complained to seller but in case of no result any idea where I could buy some?

You can kink over the hoses in a loop of a cable tie. Tighten the kink until sufficient damping is achieved.

i bought a cheap set of these type gauges. found them too inaccurate so got mercury ones instead for much more expense

Those gauges are "OK" if you accept them for what they are - cheap and cheerful.

The feedback shows that a common complaint is the needles not being zeroed equally. This is easily remedied - just pop the front cover off and use a flat screwdriver on the one screw to adjust the needle to zero.

I checked my set by putting tee pieces between the gauges and applying the same vacuum to each of them, and they were actually very close.
