Flowrox™ sleeve

Main spare parts for the pinch valves is the elastic rubber sleeve. It is the only valve part in contact with the process medium. Sleeve has a reinforced construction, making them the pressure-containing part of the valve. Advanced technology and over 40 years of experience results in a high quality sleeve that guarantee high wear and corrosion resistance, a trouble-free operation, and extended lifetime.
