New valves sizes for very-high- pressure applications
Earlier this year, this company introduced new sizes to its family of ultra-high-pressure valves, fittings and tubing. The company added 3/8 in. and 9/16 in. O.D. valves and fittings (photo) designed to ensure safe and easy plumbing for pressures up to 100,000 psi. The new sizes of valves are available in four body styles: two-way straight, two-way angle, three-way/two inlets and three-way/one inlet. Accompanying fittings include check valves, elbows, tees and crosses. The new valves feature 316 stainless-steel high-tensile bodies, non-rotating stem tips to ensure a long life on valve seats, packing below the stem threads and a positive gland-locking device. — High Pressure Equipment Co., a subsidiary of Graco Inc., Erie, Pa.
