2088 - Forklift Propane Cylinder Check Valve Adapter 1-1/4 ACME

Reliable LPG Connection and Safety

The FV2088 Forklift Check Valve is a specialized brass fitting designed to facilitate secure connections in Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) systems, specifically for forklift propane cylinders. Engineered with precision, this component serves as both an adapter and a safety check device, ensuring that gas flow is controlled and backflow is prevented during transfer or operation.

Constructed from high-quality brass, the valve offers excellent resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear, making it suitable for the harsh environments often found in industrial warehousing and material handling. The primary connection features a 1-1/4" Female ACME thread, which is the industry standard for coupling to the fill valves of forklift propane tanks. This allows for a direct and secure attachment to the cylinder hardware.

The secondary connection is a 1/4" Female National Pipe Thread (FPT/FNPT). This versatile port allows for the attachment of various hoses, relief valves, or piping infrastructure depending on the specific setup of the filling station or vehicle fuel system. The integrated check mechanism within the body of the adapter ensures that once the connection is made and flow is established, the medium cannot reverse direction unintentionally, adding a layer of safety to fuel handling procedures.

Whether used for maintenance, repair, or custom fabrication of LPG transfer systems, the FV2088 meets the rigorous demands of industrial gas applications. Its robust design ensures a long service life and leak-free performance when installed correctly with appropriate sealants and torque specifications.
