I have an extra set of 75mm valve stems from Milk It. Want to cut them down and put in a 45mm wheel. If I just snip the long tail will they still be okay?
I doubt you’d get a clean enough cut but maybe. Why cut them at all?
I think they will only be threaded as much as they need to so I don’t think you will be able to screw in a valve if you shorten them… unless don’t understand what you are trying to do.
Edit: apologies, I wasn’t familiar with the milk it valves… they look a bit like a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist…
mo valve stem = mo betta
Good point. Would probably still work…
Think you’d also need to cut the long bit on the valve, so it matches (it pushes the rubber bit inside the rim open).
But, I’d just use them as they are.
What I’m planning to do is use them as a a core replacement without removing the valve stems.
