About On/Off Valves

With Threaded Pipe Connections

Max. Pressure: See Table
Max. Steam Pressure:
Brass: Not Rated
Bronze: 235 psi @ 400° F
Temp. Range:
Brass: 35° to 350° F
Bronze: -20° to 400° F

Strainers catch debris in your pipeline, preventing damage to valves, pumps, nozzles, and other sensitive equipment. They are designed for medium-pressure applications. Strainers have a threaded drain with a plug that provides access to the screen without disconnecting your line. They have good corrosion resistance.

Strainers for use with drinking water meet NSF/ANSI 61 safety standards for drinking water systems.

Medium-Pressure Inline Strainers

Max. Pressure for Water, Oil, and Diesel Fuel: 500 psi @ 70° F
Temp. Range: 32° to 180° F

Use these strainers in medium-pressure applications to protect sensitive equipment from damage caused by debris. The screen is in the strainer body to save space. Strainers have good corrosion resistance.

High-Pressure Inline Filters

Remove small particles in high-pressure applications up to 5,000 psi to protect sensitive equipment, such as hydraulic controls. Without adding bulk to your line, inline filters act as a secondary defense to trap particles that make it past your intake filter.

Brass filters have good corrosion resistance.

Filters with an access port let you install a new filter element without replacing the entire unit or removing it from your line. However, they take up slightly more space than filters without access ports.

Threaded On/Off Valves with Easy-Access Strainer

A built-in strainer traps debris and allows you to replace the screen without disconnecting your pipeline. These valves have a T-handle or lever that resists accidental movement when snagged or bumped. They are full port, so they do not restrict flow.

Nickel-plated brass valves are more corrosion resistant than plain brass valves.
