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

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.
