The 5.5mm Shuttle Valve is a 5.5 mm diameter, selective, non-detented, loose ball three port isolation valve for use in hydraulic manifolds. The valve uses The Lee Company’s field-proven insert principle that provides secure retention without the need for threads, O-rings or sealants. The valves compact size makes it ideal as a signal for auxiliary functions, such as hydraulically released, spring-applied brakes as well as load sensing applications. This valve is the smallest in its’ flow class, often one third the size of existing shuttle valves with comparable flow rates, allowing system designers to optimize system component sizing, leading to improved efficiencies, reduced weight, and lower costs. The all metal construction provides high reliability, drip tight leakage and is 100% performance tested to ensure consistent, long term performance.
