PVC Type-21 SST Flow Control Metering Valve
Premium True Union Metering Valve for Soft-Wash and Pressure-Washing Systems
The PVC Type-21 SST Flow Control Ball Valve is a professional-grade chemical metering valve designed for precise, dependable flow adjustment. Built with premium materials and advanced Seat Support Technology, it is one of the highest-grade metering valves available for pressure-washing, soft-washing, chemical proportioning, and water-treatment systems.
Its precision-machined flow-control ball and seat provide smooth, repeatable chemical adjustments—making it an excellent choice for soft-wash proportioning systems and blend manifolds where accurate control of water, sodium hypochlorite, and surfactant flow is essential.
Unlike a standard ball valve intended primarily for ON/OFF operation, this flow-control valve offers equal-percentage flow characteristics for more precise metering throughout the valve’s operating range. The graduated indicator plate and handle position line make it easier to record and repeat mixture settings from one job to the next.
The true union design allows the valve body to be removed for inspection, cleaning, or service without cutting apart the plumbing system. PTFE seats provide permanent lubrication and help maintain a bubble-tight seal, while elastomeric seat cushions compensate for wear and maintain consistent pressure against the ball. Dual stem O-rings and carrier seals help prevent external leakage.
