    Threaded Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves

    Also known as needle valves, these adjust flow in small increments for metering, sampling, and other applications requiring fine flow control. Turn the handle to adjust flow. All valves have metal-to-metal seats that resist temperature fluctuations.

    303 Stainless Steel Body—303 stainless steel valves are more corrosion resistant than brass and steel valves.
    316 Stainless Steel Body—316 stainless steel valves have the best corrosion resistance.
    Locking Handle—Locking handles have a nut to prevent accidental flow adjustment.
    Internal Check Valve—Internal check valves actuate when the pressure changes to stop flow from the controlled direction and allow free flow in the opposite direction. Valves with an internal check valve are often used to control the speed of air cylinders and air-powered motors.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—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.

    Easy-Set Plastic Threaded Precision Flow-Adjustment Valves

    To ensure consistent and repeatable settings, these valves have color-coded handle threads and numerical markings. One full revolution of the handle reveals a new color to indicate the set point. Turn the handle to adjust flow in small increments for metering, sampling, and other applications requiring fine flow control. The locking knob handle has a ring that prevents accidental adjustment.
