Fitting Torque Non-Metallic Valves
The non-metallic materials for valve assemblies such as the MV-1, MV-2 and TC-7
require significantly less torque (approximately 50%) to properly seal fittings than
comparable metal die cast bodies.
The use of excess torque will fracture non-metallic bodies. It is recommended that a
maximum torque of 10 FOOT POUNDS should not be exceeded. Torque information is
noted on non-metallic bodies.
Please pass this information on to your or your customer’s service facility.
