Built from aluminum alloy, this valve uses a 1\/4 inch NPT female thread connection and provides reliable, low-maintenance flow control in compressed air circuits. The shuttle mechanism redirects or blocks air flow based on pressure differentials, making it a dependable component for automated and manually actuated pneumatic lines. At 0.21 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for tight panel or manifold installations. Typical installers include industrial maintenance technicians, pneumatic system assemblers, and experienced mechanical tradespeople working with compressed air controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shuttle valve is appropriate for use in light industrial, commercial, and mechanical systems that rely on compressed air flow management. It fits into pneumatic control circuits where directional air flow regulation is required, such as actuator supply lines, cylinder control circuits, or air logic systems. The 1\/4 inch NPT female thread allows direct connection to standard pipe fittings, quick-connect manifolds, or threaded component ports found in common pneumatic assemblies. The aluminum alloy body holds up well in dry or lightly lubricated air environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShuttle valve design for directional air flow control in pneumatic circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum alloy body for lightweight construction and corrosion resistance in dry air service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPT female thread for standard pipe and fitting compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact footprint: 2.05 inches wide, 1.38 inches tall, 0.87 inches in length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.21 pounds, suitable for space-constrained panel or manifold mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard shuttle-type pneumatic flow control valve with 1\/4 inch NPT female threading, compatible with compressed air systems using standard NPT-threaded components and fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic technician or licensed mechanical tradesperson. Depressurize and lock out the compressed air supply completely before removing or installing any pneumatic component. Use thread sealant rated for pneumatic service on NPT connections and torque fittings to the fitting manufacturer's standard recommendation. Verify flow direction orientation before pressurizing the system to ensure the shuttle mechanism operates as intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Shuttle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFemale Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.87 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.21 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRO-SOURCE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5500001813PRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRO-SOURCE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743969149234,"sku":"5500001813PRO","price":40.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/179fba5af884d2e084b4a5465f040276.jpg?v=1788852151","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/pro-source-5500001813pro-shuttle-air-flow-control-valve","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
