Heavy Duty 1/4" NPT Full Port Brass Ball Valve (KTC-25)
The PneumaticPlus KTC-25 is a premium, high-pressure 1/4" NPT Female x Female Brass Ball Valve engineered for critical industrial and gas applications. Distinguished by its 900 PSI Maximum Pressure rating and dual CGA/AGA certifications, the KTC-25 provides a superior safety margin for high-vibration machinery and specialized fuel gas systems.
Critical Industrial & Gas Applications
The KTC-25 is designed to exceed standard pneumatic requirements, providing professional-grade reliability in demanding environments:
- High-Pressure Pneumatics: With a 50% higher burst ceiling than standard valves, it is the ideal choice for systems operating up to 900 PSI where safety is the top priority.
- Certified Fuel Gas Service: Specifically approved by the CGA and AGA for safe operation in fuel gas lines, where standard pneumatic valves are prohibited by safety codes.
- High-Vibration Mobile Equipment: The reinforced forged brass body is built to withstand the constant cycling and mechanical stress found in mobile compressors and heavy machinery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is the KTC-25 considered 'Heavy Duty' compared to standard valves?
A: The KTC-25 features a higher-grade forged body and internal components that allow for a 900 PSI max pressure rating and specialized gas approvals (CGA/AGA).
Q: Can I use this valve on Manchester or Samuel air receiver tanks?
A: Yes. It is a direct fit for the 1/4" NPT ports on these tanks and is the preferred choice for outdoor or high-vibration mobile compressor installations.
