Post by: chefany on February 04, 2013, 10:37:41 PM

Hey guys, i am searching for 2 non return air valves for my inflateable boat, they are the small black ones, the hinterland queen size air mattresses have exact same plug, if anyone can help out please let me know Cheers Andy

I think the part you're looking for is called a Boston Valve. Most chandlery, water sports / ski or camping stores should have them.

I have tried bcf, bunnings, and tent world, am thinking about just buying some more air beds from big w to get the valves

Not exactly sure, but Chandleries such as Bias and whitworths might be a better place to look - here is couple of types on whitworths site.

Go to any tackle store or chandlery. Tell them to get you a 505500 from BLA. RRP is $4.90

Where do you live & I'll find you're nearest store.
