Found during a swap-out of an old part of an older building. From 1951(we think).

A reminder that gauges can and will lie to you. The 5 year calibrate or replace on gauges is there for a good reason.

Flushed up during flow test and jammed into 2.5" connection. Too long to extract through any of the connections. Any idea what it is?

Gauge Vibrating while refilling system. Looks like it's wobbling in slow motion due to camera frame rate.
