These needle valves are precision-machined from a single piece of material, delivering superior strength and performance for high-pressure and critical flow control applications. Designed for accurate regulation of liquids and gases, these rugged valves are available in various overlapping orifice-needle sizes to accommodate a broad range of flow rates. Engineered for precise control of very low flow rates in liquid and gas applications, the MFV™ metering valves feature a non-rising stem with a non-rotating, precision-ground tapered needle that moves in a true rectilinear motion. The design provides exceptional metering accuracy with sixteen turns from closed to full open, delivering high-resolution adjustment and virtually eliminating hysteresis. The valves provide dependable, bubble-tight shutoff and long service life in laboratory instrumentation, benchtop setups, and OEM flow control systems that require fine flow regulation.
