Our unique mechanical squeezing enables all seals to fully compress insuring superior quality.
All valve parts are made of DuPont 80G33 Supertough Glass reinforced Nylon, except the turning head which does not have glass reinforcement. Expansion and contraction rates of the various parts, due to temperature change, will be similar. The Supertough additive provides high-impact even at cold temperatures.
All seals are made of Buna N, the best for natural gas, and coated with grease for maximum lubrication and protection.
