Product Description
For systems where an all-glass wetted path is preferred, this straight valve combines a borosilicate plug with the fine threaded action of the HI-VAC line. It opens as a bleed up to half a turn and is fully open at one and a half turns.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 826450-0004: HI-VAC Straight Valve, with Glass Plug and Tip O-Ring, Bore Range 0-4 mm. Both body and plug are borosilicate glass 3.3, sealed with FKM O-rings, including one at the tip. Plugs are fully interchangeable with other HI-VAC counterparts of the same size, which simplifies maintenance across a lab with many valves. A bore range of 0-4 mm is offered in this configuration. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.
