Metal Seated Check Valves Overview

American Flow Control
Series 50-SC Swing Check Valve

American Flow Control has incorporated significant and innovative design changes to prolong service life for swing check valves in water, heavy sludge, and raw sewage service. Traditionally, swing check valves have been manufactured with bronze clapper arm shafts. Under severe service conditions where grit or sand has been present, these bronze shafts have a tendency to wear. American Flow Control Series 50-SC Swing Check Valves incorporate design features to increase service life.
