Dual Gauge CO2 Regulator
A regulator is the device that connects the gas cylinder to the air tube. As one of the most important components, the regulator controls the flow of CO2 from the cylinder through the gas line. If the pressure needs adjusting, the regulator is where you would make those adjustments to find the right pressure.
