This miniature check valve is only 0.25 inches in diameter and 0.78 inches in length. This valve features an economical ball-style design allowing free flow in one direction and preventing flow in the other direction. It is ideal for applications with flow rates up to 1.8 GPM. An integral safety screen is available for increased protection against contamination.
