Biocompatible Inline Check Valves



Scivex(TM) recently expanded its line of Upchurch Scientific brand nonmetallic, biocompatible Inline Check Valves. These PEEK(TM) polymer inlet and outlet check valves offer the same backflow protection as our standard versions with added biocompatibility and chemical resistance benefits. Furthermore, their springless design results in an even lower cracking pressure - 1 psi (.07 bar). These products now come in more configuration options, including internal and external 1/4-28 and 10-32 threads.
