Frequently Asked Questions
What is a needle valve used for?
A needle valve provides precise flow regulation in small-diameter piping. It is commonly used in marine fuel systems, instrumentation lines, and metering applications where accurate control is essential.
What materials are used in this valve?
The valve body is made of corrosion-resistant brass, with a stainless steel stem and seat for enhanced durability and leak-tight shut-off.
What thread connections are available?
This valve features a male thread with a ring joint nut. It is available in both NPT and BSP thread standards to suit international shipboard installations.
Can this valve be used for seawater applications?
While brass offers good resistance to marine atmospheres, prolonged exposure to seawater may require a bronze or stainless steel valve. For typical fuel, oil, and freshwater lines, this brass needle valve is an excellent choice.
