Recognise this air valve?

[charliefdt]

Has anyone seen this type of valve? I would like to buy a "proper" adapter for it ... only if I knew what to look for

It looks like a "flush fit" valve on the outside. It is also very similar to the generic "8 hole air valve". It's different though, perhaps someone recognizes it. My best guess is something Italian from the late 80s

The make is "Motomar Floating". Out of business I'm afraid


The diference from HR valve is that it has 2 concentric walls: one exterior just like a HR with the 8 slots outside of it. One more, smaller, outside of wich there are the 2 tabs that the adapter and the cap grabs when twisting. At the center of it all is the push pin of the actual valve. At the moment I'm inflating by sealing against the inner face of the inner wall but I intend to 3d print the correct adapter.

Thank you. I thought you've identified the valve and found it online somewhere. The Halkey Roberts valve is indeed easy to find it is just not the same as the one i have on the boat and the pump adapter for Halkey Roberts valves will not work

There is an old Halkey Robert Valve no longer made and there is the "New Short Halkey Robert Valve" but you can still buy an adapter for either model. I sell them in my store. or NRS also carries them.
