I am rebulding an old compressor that i use for breathing air on a gold dredge. It is a teldine and is no longer made. being a machinist I am able to make most replacment parts, but the reeds are a bit of a problem. Is there any one that makes a genaric reed the one I need is .750 ' x 1.0625' .010" thick with 2 holes in one end with .4375" spacing center to center.

Hey Randy, welcome to Electric City WA.

I don't know of any source. Maybe someone reading this post will know of one.

Meantime, could you not emulate the function of the reed valves by simply using check valves?

Cheers,

Bill
