Straight Pattern
Isolate system fluids and achieve reliable, leak-tight performance with Swagelok bellows valves, which use a packless design and a welded seal. Bellows valves are ideal for applications where the seal to atmosphere is critical, and we offer multiple options for general and high-purity service.
Swagelok® BM series bellows-sealed metering valves use a micrometer handle for precise, repeatable flow settings at pressures up to 700 psig (48.2 bar) and temperatures up to 900°F (482°C).
Features: Step-by-step identification procedure for threads and end connections.

Valve sizing often is described by the nominal size of the end connections, but a more important measure is the flow that the valve can provide. And determining flow through a valve can be simple.
Welding should be done by qualified personnel as outlined in Section IX of the ASME Boiler Code. Weld filler material should be the same as the base material.
