Randy C Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hey guys. I have a question concerning the log splitter valve that I pick up for my forging press. It is spring centered and has 1/2 npt ports but the in and out ports are 1/2" as well. I have noticed that most new log splitters have spring centered valves with 3/4" in and out. Will this be a OK or should I get another? My press will be using a 16 gpm pump and two 4 1/2" bore cylinders if that matters. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arftist Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Yeah, get the bigger valvle. 3/4" ports all around. You will also need a flow divider to run two pistons one one circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
