Sure Flow Retainerless body design
In standard or competitive designs, some manufacturers
drill four holes through the body of the check valve to facilitate the
installation of a hinge pin and stop pin. The valves are then sealed
by four pipe plugs. These holes are potential leak paths from the body
of the valve.
Sure Flow Equipment Inc. utilizes an internal stop pin and hinge pin
which are machined into the cavity of the body wall. This design eliminates
a potential shell or body leak path. |
