Product description

Manual control over pneumatic or hydraulic lines is essential for safety and serviceability, and this 1/4 NPT Ball Valve (HBV-104) offers reliable, quarter-turn isolation. Whether used as a master shut-off for a tire changer's air supply or a drain valve for a moisture separator, this valve provides an immediate and visible indication of flow status. The internal ball is precision-ground to ensure a bubble-tight seal when closed, preventing the slow pressure bleed-off that can cause equipment to drift or fail to hold position. The 1/4-inch NPT ports allow for easy integration into standard shop plumbing, while the robust handle is designed for smooth operation even after long periods of inactivity. This genuine HBV-series valve is engineered to handle the repeated cycling and harsh environment of a professional garage, ensuring that when you need to cut off power for maintenance, the seal is absolute.
