Needle Valve

Sprint Drives’ Needle Valves are precision instruments engineered for accurate, fine flow control in high-pressure and high-temperature environments. Their finely threaded stem and narrow orifice design allow for incremental adjustments, making them ideal for calibration, metering, and sampling systems where precision is paramount. Built with durable materials, these valves maintain stable performance under demanding operating conditions.

Technical Specifications

• Maximum Operating Pressure: Up to 6,000 psi (414 bar)

• Maximum Operating Temperature: 232 °C (450 °F)

• Minimum Operating Temperature: -54 °C (-65 °F)

• Materials of Construction: 316 Stainless Steel, Brass, Alloy Steel

• Flow Rate (Cv): 0.04 – 0.30 (depending on orifice size)

• Connection Types: NPT, BSP, Compression (Single or Double Ferrule)

• Valve Type: Straight, Angle, Miniature

• Seat Material: Metal or Soft Seat (PTFE, PEEK)

Safety Warning

Needle valves are not suitable for full shut-off in high-flow applications. Ensure gradual adjustment to avoid damage to the seat and stem threads.
