Part No. 6X367

4-way, 2 position, direct operated, spring return, spool-poppet foot valve for use with air cylinders. Mechanism is pneumatically balanced with actuation free from effect of line pressure.  Can be operated as 2-way or 3-way, open or closed center. 1.6Cv*. 0 to 150 PSI operating pressure.  Can be used for vacuum service to 28" Hg.

3/8" NPT tapped ports are easily ported down for use with 1/8 or 1/4" systems.  All valve parts are corrosion resistant. Poppet in valve is integral with spool, which is only moving part.  Spool and stainless steel return spring can be removed from valve body through the top.  In normal (spring returned) position, port A is connected to port 02 and port B is connected to port 01.  When actuated, port A is connected to port 01 and port B is connected to port 02.

4 way, 3-position, rotary disc, hand control air valve to operate single or double acting cylinders.  Forged bronze disc and cast iron surface are ground and lapped to provide leak proof seal.  Air pressure from  inlet port is confined beneath disc, making seal tighter as pressure increases, yet only requires 15 lbs. of force to move lever at 100 psi line pressure. 2.55 average Cv*.O to 150 PSI operating pressure.  Handle comes disassembled and mounts in any of four positions, 90° apart to meet any operator or machine requirements.

3/8" NPT tapped ports can be easily reduced to 1/8" or 1/4" operation.

* Coefficient of volume: The amount of water in GPM at standard conditions (60° F, specific gravity = 1) which will pass through the valve at full open with a 1 PSI pressure drop.)

Air Vise

Maximum Operating Pressure, 150 PSI.
Gripping Force is 15 times Air line Pressure.

------------

New, completely redesigned AIRTEK, Air Vise now offers the most rugged, precision built, completely trouble-free air tool on the market.  A complete ready made jig for high speed volume production.

AIRTEK Air Vise has a jaw gripping force of 15 times air line pressure. At its maximum operating pressure of 150 pounds per square inch, derived from either an airline or individual compressor, it develops a maximum jaw pressure of 2250 pounds (15 X 150 = 2250).

Any amount of force, down to a light squeeze for delicate work may be had by simply regulating the pressure of air feed to the vise by means of an air pressure regulator.

Soft steel jaws are easily fitted with cavities to hold castings, screw machine parts, etc.  Once set, the maximum travel is 5/8 inch, but generally 1/16 inch or less is desirable for rapid insertion and removal of work.  Fixed and movable jaws are made " extra-thick" with top surfaces ground for attacking jigs, fixtures, drill bushings, etc. Cavities can be milled right into the iron jaws for holding special shapes.

The ram of AIRTEK Air Vise is driven by a long-life multiple type diaphragm instead of a piston.  No packing gland or cross head.  No fiction loss, air leakage or need for constant lubrication.  New heavy duty diaphragm is rigidly clamped between precision ground surfaces of rugged aluminum head and cylinder housing castings. No piston cups or packings to leak or wear out.

Hold down lugs are provided for attachment to metal or wood bench, drill press, miller, grinder or shaper.  The vise comes complete with two five foot Air Hoses, Foot-Control Valve with Guard and fittings, ready for use.
