About On/Off Valves

Fast-Acting Panel-Mount Threaded On/Off Valves
Start or stop flow with the flip of a toggle switch or the push of a button. These valves are often used in testing and sampling applications where you need to dispense a small amount of liquid. They fit through a cutout, so the body of the valve stays safe inside your instrumentation panel.
Nickel-plated brass valves resist corrosion better than plain brass valves. 316 stainless steel valves stand up to corrosion better than both plain and nickel-plated brass valves.
Manual-return valves stay open until you flip the toggle off. Since they don't need to be held open, they’re often used to dispense larger samples than spring-return valves. It’s also easy to check if these valves are open or not based on the toggle’s position. Spring-return valves automatically close when you release the toggle or push button. They’re ideal for intermittent use and precise flow control to prevent spills.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

Swivel Threaded On/Off Valves
Make connections from any direction—the body of these valves swivels 360° for easy installation. Often used in testing and sampling applications, they quickly open and close with a toggle or button.
Toggle-switch valves stay open until you flip them closed. Since they don’t need to be held open, they’re often used to dispense large samples. The toggle’s position shows you if they’re open or closed.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

Fast-Acting Panel-Mount On/Off Valves with Yor-Lok Fittings
- Valve Type: Stem
- For Use With: Air, Argon, Helium, Krypton, Neon, Oil, Water, Xenon
- Seal Material: PTFE Plastic
Flip the toggle to quickly turn these valves on and off. All have threads and a hex nut below the handle for installation in instrument panels. For extra gripping power and a strong seal, they have Yor-Lok fittings with two sleeves that bite into tubing as you tighten the nut. All are compatible with Swagelok®, Let-Lok, and Parker A-Lok fittings.
316 stainless steel valves are more corrosion resistant than brass valves.
