Ham-let 3204813 Needle Valve 1/2 Inch Compression 5000 Psi

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3204813 is a straight, T-handle needle valve designed for precise flow regulation in high-pressure fluid and gas systems. Built from 316 stainless steel, it accepts compression fittings on both ends and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 5000 psi. The stem-regulating design allows fine throttling control, making it a reliable choice wherever accurate flow adjustment is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians install this valve in process lines, instrumentation manifolds, and similar high-pressure applications where a leak-free compression connection is essential.

This valve is suited for both industrial and commercial installations where 1/2-inch compression-to-compression connections are required. Its straight-body configuration simplifies in-line installation in tight panel or rack environments. The 316 stainless steel construction provides solid resistance to corrosion in wet, chemical, or marine service conditions, making it appropriate for a wide range of fluid handling and instrumentation systems.

Key Features

• T-handle actuator provides manual fine-flow control without additional tools
• Straight body style supports direct in-line installation
• 5000 psi maximum working pressure rating for high-pressure service
• Compression x compression end connections on both ports for leak-resistant assembly
• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• 1/2-inch pipe size accommodates standard half-inch compression tubing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit needle valve for 1/2-inch compression fitting systems. Cross-references Swagelok part number SS-1RS8-SH for fitment reference.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or instrumentation technician familiar with high-pressure compression fitting systems. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any valve. Compression fittings must be made up per the fitting manufacturer's procedure to ensure a leak-free seal. Verify system compatibility with the 5000 psi pressure rating before placing the valve in service.
