I assume that you are after globe valves for the injectors and such .

I believe that your best value solution would be to do what any contractor would have done , if he did not have a spare , and go and buy modern gunmetal replacements from BSS . With a little bit of cosmetic attention to age them they look fine , and will be cheaper than any secondhand rubbish , and work perfectly .

I am sure that there is a catalogue on line , or they will send you one .

David, presumably they are flanged? George Hudson had a 3/4 flanged valve advertised in steaming.

Try asking "feet n inches" on here - he might be able to help you.

Cheers Carl.
