Title: Dynamic Fluid Check Valves
Post by: juicdmonte on April 21, 2004, 08:28:16 PM
I was looking for the Parkers but no one had them.. someone had a set of Dynamic Fluid brand.

They look similar to the aircraft style that Hydros is selling.. just wondering if anyone had any experience or knew anything about them.

Any help would be appreciated...

I have not used these. I'd say they'd be fine for show at 3,000 PSI.

As for hopping, the larger ID go down to 3,000PSI and the larger ID might be better for flow, but the PSI seems questionable.

I think Parker makes the bigger ID with 5,000 PSI's


ID= inside diameter

OK, so I know a slow down valve will reduce the flow so that your suspension will drop fast or slow, depending on the slow down setting, but what does a check valve do?  :blink:

A check valve allows flow in only one direction. This valve is also a useful tool with gravity down type of systems.
