Check Valves - Parker Check Valves feature fully guided poppets. This superior design eliminates wobble and erratic travel that can commonly occur with less durable ball-check-type construction. The soft seal poppet on the Check Valves are standard for sizes up to 1/2" NPT, #10 SAE.

Pressure Compensated Flow Valves - For applications requiring flow consistency with varying pressures, Parker offers Pressure Compensated Flow Control Valves that are available in adjustable flow control or preset flow configurations. The flow precision is within +/- 5%. There is also the option of ordering with a reverse flow check if needed.

Needle Valves - The flow setting on the Flow Control, Needle, and Pressure Compensated Control Valves can be secured with the standard set crew or with the optional thumbscrew that does not require additional tools. A further option is available that allows the flow setting to be permanently secured.
