Flow-Adjustment Valves

Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves with
Push-to-Connect Fittings for Chemicals

Insert tubing into the fittings on these valves—no heat, solder, or flux required. With a fluoroelastomer seal and a PVDF body, they can withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications. Turn the handle to adjust flow in small increments for metering, sampling, and other applications requiring fine flow control.

Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves
with Barbed Fittings for Chemicals

Barbs grip onto tubing, providing a secure hold. To withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications, these valves have a PTFE seal and a PVDF body. Turn the handle to adjust flow in small increments for metering, sampling, and other applications requiring fine flow control.

Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves
with Yor-Lok Fittings for Chemicals

For extra gripping power and a strong seal, these valves 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. The 316 stainless steel body and seal, the PTFE seat and packing, and the Monel needle can withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications. Turn the handle to adjust flow in small increments for metering, sampling, and other applications requiring fine flow control.

Threaded Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves for Fuel

Valves have NPT connections for use with threaded pipe. Turn the handle to adjust the flow of butane, diesel fuel, fuel oil, gasoline, kerosene, natural gas, and propane in small increments.

Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves
with Barbed Fittings for Fuel

Add fine flow control to tubing lines for oil, butane, diesel fuel, fuel oil, gasoline, kerosene, natural gas, and propane. These valves have a barbed fitting that grips onto tubing, providing a secure hold. Turn the handle to adjust flow in small increments.

Plastic Noncontact Flow-Adjustment Valves

With no metal parts, these valves are often used for noncontact flow adjustment in wet conditions and harsh environments. All press down on the outside of tubing to adjust flow without contacting the process media.

On/Off Valves

On/Off Valves with Push-to-Connect
Fittings for Chemicals

Insert tubing into the fittings on these valves—no heat, solder, or flux required. To withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions, they have a chemical-resistant fluoroelastomer seal and a plastic body.

Miniature Threaded On/Off Valves for Chemicals

To withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in miniature chemical-processing pipelines, these tiny valves have a chemical-resistant fluoroelastomer seal and a corrosion-resistant 303 stainless steel body.

Ultra-Chemical-Resistant Threaded On/Off Valves

The most chemical-resistant threaded valves we offer, these have a PTFE seal and an alloy body that can withstand extremely aggressive and corrosive chemicals, such as methyl ethyl ketone and toluene.

Easy-Clean Threaded On/Off Valves for Chemicals

There’s no need to unbolt these valves for cleaning—remove the valve handle and slide the valve apart for inline access to internal components. Also known as elliptical valves, they have a fluoroelastomer seal and a polypropylene body to withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications.

Easy-to-Install Threaded On/Off Valves for Chemicals

For fast installation and removal from pipelines, these valves have union fittings that disassemble into multiple pieces. All have a fluoroelastomer seal and a plastic body that can stand up to aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications.

On/Off Valves with Barbed Fittings for Chemicals

Barbs grip onto tubing, providing a secure hold. To withstand aggressive and corrosive solutions in chemical-processing applications, these valves have a plastic body and a chemical-resistant seal.

Compact Threaded On/Off Valves for
Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane

Install these low-profile valves in low-clearance pipelines for natural gas, propane, and butane.

On/Off Valves with 45° Flared Compression
Fittings for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane

With 45° flared tube fittings, these valves form a tight seal on metal tubing lines for natural gas, propane, and butane.

Actuated On/Off Valves

Solenoid On/Off Valves with Exhaust Port
for Natural Gas, Propane, and Butane

Often used to control single-acting, spring-return air cylinders, these valves have a third threaded port to exhaust media.

Solenoid On/Off Valves for Natural
Gas, Propane, and Butane

Install these valves in gas pipelines to automatically control the flow of natural gas, propane, and butane to equipment.

Heavy-Use High-Flow Air-Driven On/Off Valves

Limit wear and damage in high-cycling applications—these valves have additional seals that prevent leakage to reduce maintenance time.

High-Flow Flanged Air-Driven On/Off Valves

Their ball-valve design allows these valves to handle three times the flow of butterfly valves.

Air-Driven On/Off Valves for Fuel

Use these valves to safely transfer fuel and oil.

Severe-Duty Air-Driven On/Off Valves for Chemicals

Also known as diaphragm valves, these have a diaphragm that can handle dirty liquid, slurries, and abrasive media without damage.

Flanged Air-Driven On/Off Valves for Chemicals

With a ball-valve design, these valves can handle three times the flow of butterfly valves.

Flanged Motor-Driven On/Off Valves for Chemicals

For three times the flow of butterfly valves, these have a ball valve design.

Motor-Driven On/Off Valves for Fuel

Use these valves to safely transfer fuel and oil.

Check Valves

Flange-Mount Check Valves for Oil and Fuel

Install these valves between ANSI flanges.

High-Temperature Threaded
Check Valves for Oil and Fuel

For more than twice the temperature rating of standard check valves for oil and fuel, these have a heat-resistant fluoroelastomer seal that can withstand temperatures up to 500° F.

Check Valves with Push-to-Connect
Fittings for Harsh Chemicals

Insert tubing into the fittings—no heat, solder, or flux required.

Threaded Check Valves for Harsh Chemicals

These valves open to allow flow in one direction and close when flow stops or reverses.

Check Valves with Barbed Fittings for Harsh Chemicals

Barbs grip onto tubing, providing a secure hold.

Easy-to-Install Threaded Check
Valves for Harsh Chemicals

To reduce installation time and allow for maintenance without detaching pipe connections, these valves have union fittings.

Ultra-Chemical-Resistant Threaded Check Valves

The most chemical-resistant check valves in our offering, these have a PFA body to withstand methyl ethyl ketone, sodium hypochlorite, and other extremely harsh chemicals.

Sampling Valves for Fuel

Often installed on petroleum loading arms to test fuel quality without interrupting flow, these valves are fire-tested to meet American Petroleum Institute (API) 607, Edition 5, for securely isolating fluid and preventing the spread of fire.

Totalizers for Natural, Propane, and Butane Gas

Often used in heating, cooking, and power-generating systems.

Hose Fittings

Compressed Gas Fill Valves

Mount these valves onto compressed gas tanks.

Quick-Disconnect Hose Couplings for Compressed Gas

These couplings consist of a plug and socket that connect and disconnect quickly. Use them if you need to frequently link and unlink welding hoses, torches, and regulators. They are also known as CGA couplings.
