Hello,
I have found a regulator which closley resembles an APEKS TX40, TX50, or DST first stage. The LP ports are all the same size(not a single oversized one), the Inlet yoke retainer fitting is the same thread, and the diaphragm is the same diameter. However, the reg is NOT environmentally sealed, there is an o-ring under the yoke, there was a teflon backup ring on top of the diaphragm, and the seat was white and significantly longer. I will include a few pictures, but have more of the inside of the reg. Could someone help me identify this regulator so I can use the proper parts kit? Im not sure if this is even an apex since Zeagle sells the same thing.

Hi Regtechkidd,
Thanks for asking.
As you suspect, it is not an Apeks but a wannabe.
Don't know what to tell you.
