Ashton Valve Co Brass Ringed Vacuum Gauge 5 Inch

Description

You are bidding on an old antique pressure gage
This old gauge is a 0 to 30 inch vacuum gage
It is brass ringed.  I think the ring screws on and is not a press on friction fit ring
The case is made of cast iron
The back of the case has a U cast into it
The dial is nicely engraved
The dial is marked with The Ashton Valve Co Boston Mass Vacuum
The scale is 0/30 inches vacuum in 1 inch increments
One screw is missing from the bottom where the bourdon tube is screwed to the case
The needle does not bounce so it appears the spring is intact.
I have not tested or pulled a vacuum on it.
This is a great old pressure vacuum indicator for a train collector, engine buff, machinery or locomotive restoration
The eBay shipping cost calculator is not accurate.
It is frequently off from what the Post Office actually charges me by a
lot
.  The rates quoted in the listing are not set by me, it is the lovely inaccurate eBay shipping cost calculator. Give me a shout with
your zip code
if you think the shipping cost is
too high
.
Yes, I will ship anywhere in the world. International sellers must contact me first before paying via pay pal. The eBay shipping calculator does not work very well for international addresses.
International buyers please contact me first before paying
.
I do this part time so I am slower than those eBay powr sellers when it comes to e-mails, finances and shipping and feedback. Please be patient. This is a hobby for me. I work and have a family life so I am not always the quickest eBayer especially when it comes to leaving feedback. I do try to be quick but sometimes I get tied up with non-eBay activities. Sorry.
Note: I now charge for shipping.  The cost of bubble wrap, envelopes, labels, etc is just too much now and I need to come close to breaking even on this stuff.  Sorry.
I value the 100% positive feedback that I have maintained for well over 1700 transactions. I will work with you to resolve questions and issues. If you are unsatisfied with me or the item, communicate with me! I try to be as fair and realistic in my descriptions of the item I am selling. Though I try my best, I am not perfect in my descriptions or identifications of items. I will try to correct any mistakes I make in a listing. Email me if you see something that is incorrect. I will accept returns, but
you will pay
for all return shipping charges.
I am glacially slow in leaving feedback, usually months behind.
Everything I sell is used and old with expected wear and tear on it. You are buying the item as is. What you see in the pictures is what you get, no more, no less.
If you have questions, please email me. Good luck and Happy Bidding. Bid early and often!
