  1. Design Features
  1. Non‑rotating Stem – Prevents galling and extends seat/packing life; stem moves axially without rotation.
  2. Metal‑to‑Metal Seating (Standard) – Sharp needle tip provides fine flow control and positive shut‑off (bubble‑tight).
  3. PTFE Packing – Low friction, good chemical resistance, suitable up to 200°C. Graphite packing available for high temperature.
  4. Integral Bonnet Construction – Reduces potential leak paths; robust for high‑pressure applications.
  5. Included Nipples – Valve is supplied with two stainless steel male NPT nipples for easy connection to piping or tubing.
  6. Fine Flow Regulation – Needle profile allows precise, repeatable flow adjustment from fully closed to fully open.

  1. Ordering Information

Please specify:

  • Valve size: DN15 (1/2″)
  • Pressure: PN40
  • Connection: Female NPT + 2 matching male NPT nipples
  • Body material: SS316 / SS304
  • Stem tip: Metal / Soft (PTFE)
  • Packing: PTFE / Graphite
  • Handle: Knob / T‑handle
  • Nipple length: ___ mm
  • Special: Panel mounting, NACE MR0175, low‑emission packing, etc.

Notes:

  • “c/w Nipples” means the valve is supplied complete with two nipples, ready for installation.
  • For high‑temperature steam (>200°C), select graphite packing and metal stem tip.
  • Needle valves are not intended for full on/off isolation in high‑cycle applications; they are designed for flow regulation and shut‑off.
  • Confirm pressure‑temperature limits with the manufacturer for specific media.
