Collection:Pneumatic Flow Control Valves With Push-In Fittings

These valves are designed to control the flow rate in one direction and allow a free air flow in the opposite direction. They consist of a needle and a check valve combination, which provides them with both of their functions. The needle valve provides the throttling function while the check valve ensures that the flow is affected in only one direction. The orientation of the check valve within the flow controller dictates which flow is metered. If the flow is metered entering a cylinder it is a meter-in valve and if it is metered exiting the valve it is a meter-out valve.

The flow controllers are especially useful in double acting cylinders. Depending on the model they can be inserted directly in the actuator with a threaded end (Elbow and Free) or in line with a straight union type that has push-in fittings on both sides. The free model has a rotatable resin body which contains the push-in fitting and allows you to choose a direction of the flow.

The push-in fitting sizes range from 4 to 12 mm and from 1/8 to 1/2 inch and threaded nipples from M3 x 0.5 to M5 x 0.8 and from R1/8 to R1/2 inch.
