Plastic Noncontact Flow-Adjustment Valves
With no metal parts, these valves are often used for noncontact flow adjustment in wet conditions and harsh environments. Also known as pinch valves, they press down on the outside of tubing to adjust flow without contacting the process media. They can be used with any media that’s chemically compatible with your tubing.
Valves with a closed body securely hold tubing in place.
Valves with an open body provide easy access to tubing for maintenance or replacement.
Dial handles are marked with a 1 to 10 mm scale that allows you to make repeatable adjustments.
Tabs have flow-adjustment notches that allow you to lock in adjustments.

Noncontact Flow-Adjustment Valves
Also known as pinch valves, these press down on the outside of tubing to adjust flow without contacting the process media. They can be used with any media that’s chemically compatible with your tubing.
Nickel-plated brass valves are more corrosion resistant than zinc or zinc-plated steel valves.
Valves with an open body provide easy access to tubing for maintenance or replacement.
Valves with a closed body securely hold tubing in place.

Panel-Mount Noncontact Flow-Adjustment Valves
For installation in instrument panels, these valves have a hex nut and threads below the handle. Also known as pinch valves, they press down on the outside of tubing to adjust flow without contacting the process media. Valves can be used with any media that’s chemically compatible with your tubing.

Hose and Tube Gripping Pliers
Grip hose and tubing for installation and removal without damage.
Pliers with curved jaws are shaped to firmly grip hose and tubing.
Pliers with double jaws remove hose and tubing from a fitting. While one jaw grips the hose and tubing, the other pushes the hose and tubing back from the fitting to remove it.
Cushion grip pliers have plastic grips for comfort.
Ultra grip pliers have grips made of hard and soft materials for comfort and slip resistance. They are shaped to fit comfortably in your hand and reduce strain from repetitive tasks.

Hose and Tube Pinch-Off Pliers
Cushion Grip,
Quick-Release Handle
Clamp down on nonreinforced hose and tube to squeeze it shut, eliminating the need to drain the hose when working on pumps, heating and cooling systems, and fuel lines.
Cushion-grip pliers have plastic grips for comfort. Squeeze the handles and the jaws automatically adjust to fit a workpiece and lock in place. Turn the screw on plain-grip pliers to adjust the pressure and squeeze the handles to lock them.
Pliers with lever release open when you press the lever. Pliers with quick release are easier to open with one hand than lever release—push the handles open with your fingers.
Pliers with a head angle give you access to low-clearance spaces.
