What is a pinch valve?
Thousands of solutions.
A pinch valve is a type of control valve, which pinches a flexible tube to control fluid flow. The pinching (compression) can be accomplished using mechanical clamping mechanisms and can be pneumatically or electrically actuated.
Endless configurations.
Why use pinch valves?
Infinite applications.

Industry leaders looking for low-maintenance and costeffective solutions for controlling corrosive liquids, gases, slurries, and powders in a pipeline are turning to pinch valves with flexible tubing over traditional valves. Pinch valves feature a straight-through flow, very little pressure drop over the valve, and full shut-off of media in the tube. They can lessen or eliminate contamination, improving hygienic processes and making it the most practical solution for various fluid control applications.
Advantages of Pinch Valves >> Compact, lightweight design >> Easy cleaning (just throw away the tubing) >> Fast and simple tube replacement
