These needle valves are specially configured to allow very precise flow control - even down to several drops per minute! Six turns on the knob take the valve from fully open to fully closed. Inlet and outlet fittings may have different pressure/temperature limits than the Needle Valve. Various valve configurations are available above. If different fittings on the inlet and outlet ports are needed, or for other valve seal materials, please contact Buckeye.

The plastic has a solid feel to it. Build quality feels good. In short, it works exactly as expected. I have a Cirqua HP800 formulation cartridge to add taste / flavor back into my 0 tds water. This needle valve allows for precise adjustment for best taste drinking water.
Side note, the formulation cartridge, along with pure water, makes for a nice upgrade in taste to my daily coffee! Starbies eat your heart out ;)
