This 3-way, 2-position hand operated manual controlled valve is used for controlling diaphragms, pilots, or air pumps of large valves, small cylinders, or pressure systems that alternately pressurize and exhaust.
A combination of industrial grade aluminum alloy components and NBR (nitrile rubber) seal are used to construct this device.
Actuation of the valve is accomplished by a red latching mushroom style push button.

Questions & Answers

In what range does the rated working pressure fall?

at 120 pounds per square inch. In any case, I have been using it in an 800 psi application for well over a year without any It's not a good idea to try that at home.

Can I run an air cylinder with a 36" stroke both in and out with a single valve?

As long as you're okay with manual switching, this valve will do the trick. I use it on adjustable suspension systems with a 24" throw.

Are there opportunities to drive a double acting cylinder on both sides?

A single direction cannot be the only direction. You can't turn your cylinder back on unless the valve is automatic

Is there a red button on this lock that opens and closes?

As long as it is pressed, it will stay open

Selected User Reviews For 1/4" NPT Red Latching Mushroom Style Push Button 3 Way, 2 Position Pneumatic Control Mechanical Valve from U.S. Solid

Definitely a good value for the money
4/5

It is not necessary to press the button to release, but to turn it. This valve is used for pressurizing the assembly chamber during manual assembly operations in which both of the assembly worker's hands are required for the operation. With this latching system, you can secure three things at once As soon as you learn how to use it, you will see why it performs so well. As we observed, the valve automatically latches into a pressurized position after the red button is depressed, and I had expected it to unlatch back into a vented position after pressing the red button once more. The latch does not need to be unlatched it is simply turned. As part of this development, we added a rubber tab to the red button to facilitate turning, and now you can just swipe your finger across the edge to turn. It also took several dozen cycles to work out roughness and stiffness in the valve. Taking it all into account, this is a fantastic.

Its opposite is an E We must stop
3/5

This machine does not meet the safety standards. certified in CMSE emergency stop and must press the break button (cut the power) then twist the release button to re-start the generator. Usually, this item would act as a start/stop button for normal processes, but in this instance, it is marketed as an emergency stop button.

This is an excellent Compared to expectations, it was better
5/5

In place of a faulty safety switch I used this to repair a 4-wire electrical system Safety catches on another post vehicle lift that operates by air (original leak). My favorite part of this is that it locks and works better than I anticipated. I love it.

It is of great quality so get it now! With this valve I was able to run a can crusher and brisket maker on a pneumatic cylinder, and they worked as planned

I rate this as 5 stars
5/5

It's a pleasure to use these valves. There are several that I have and some are temporary used at higher pressures without issues. My struggle to find a lubricant that works with the O rings has led me to the harsh realization that certain off-the-shelf lubricants don't. We would appreciate it if it were possible to buy an O ring package.
