Check out our Model #101 Micro Barbed Valve

In an increasingly compact world, space and weight are two of the most important aspects to consider when designing devices.  And, with our extensive family of small, lightweight check and pressure relief valves, we are able to meet marketplace demand with a precise and customizable product.

When small size is a critical design concern, we have the world’s smallest plastic check valve, Model #101, as a solution.  Designed to be easily inserted into 1/8” Inner Diameter (ID) tubing, this miniature valve can withstand opening pressures ranging from 2 to 20 PSI.  We are looking at making it available in lower pressures soon. Model #101 is barbed to eliminate potential leak points.  This valve is also unique due to its silicone ball design, which holds the spring in place and controls the flow of liquids and/or gasses. 

Model #101 is available in Polypropylene, Nylon, Acetal, PVDF, Polycarbonate, and Ultem® plastic body materials.  Both Polycarbonate and Ultem® are Class VI materials, making this valve ideal for the medical industry. It is a great option for flow control in dialysis machines, medical test equipment, and ventricular assist devices.  Beyond this market, Model #101 can be used in any industry with applications ranging from heating systems for oil rigs, flight simulation equipment, and ozone generators.

Although our pricing on the Model #101 is very competitive, our pricing of valves depends on component materials selected to fit your specific design criteria.  Contact a Product & Application Specialist to request a quote at (800) 338-0404 or sales@smartproducts.com
