Hydraulic valve question

What Tom said except that I bet it's a air valve instead of a hydraulic valve. It will require a manifold for mounting (thus it will cost money to use). |

If his listing of the markings are correct it is most likely hydraulic. He indicates the markings include "Ret" as in return to hydraulic tank vs. "Exh" as in exhaust air to atmosphere. Air valves are normally marked Exhaust, not return since you don't generally return air to the compressor. Pete C. |

I was going by the brand name which I've only seen air valves of that brand. |

A manifold would be nice but I wonder if there's enough meat in that plate to tap some threads for hydraulic fittings? dennis in nca |

I was going by the brand name which I've only seen air valves of that brand. Thanks, Wayne and Pete. I also think that it is a hydraulic valve. The question is, can it drive something simple like a log splitter or a H press. If yes, I will keep it, if not, I will toss it. Nobody wants it, it seems. We use one similar to it at work and we do run small hydraulic cylinders with it. I use on once years ago for a hydraulic fixture. I don't think it would handle the gpm's you need for a log splitter, al least if it's the size of the ones we use. You will need a manifold though. Easy to make. |
