Universal Check Valves



Check Valves

A check valve is a safety device designed to allow fluids and gases to flow in one direction. Under pressure, fluids enter the valve at the inlet and exit through the outlet. Uninterrupted flow continues until the pressure drops, or the pump is shut down. An important aspect of check valves is their cracking pressure, the pressure at which the disk to the valve opens, which can vary from 3 psi to 350 psi depending on the size, purpose, and function of the check valve.

Check valves are an automatic safety device that prevents backflow, ensures gases or liquids are flowing in the right direction and creates a tight seal to prevent leaks. By controlling the flow of liquids, check valves protect pumps and compressors from serious damage.

You need it, for example, for your vehicle to brake properly. It's found in most cars out there as well as trucks, vans, and SUVs. Even motorcycles make use of these valves.

Don't buy cheap parts to save money since you'll end up sacrificing your own safety and check valve performance in order to maximize your investment. Instead, go for affordable quality or cost-effectiveness. You have the option to get spring-loaded check valves for high-pressure systems with high-cracking pressures at the cost of restricted airflow. Meanwhile, low-cracking and high-flow types are also available and are usually included in most middle-class-budget vehicles.

Original Equipment Manufacturer parts are great if you can afford them or if they can be provided to you for free because your car is still under warranty. Otherwise, most motorists look for cheaper universal-fit valves that are compatible with multiple vehicles.
