After 55 years of design and testing, SAF-AIR Products, Inc. is able to offer a wide range of unique fuel drain valves for the general aviation industry. One of the unique features of our fuel valves is that we use standard o-rings made of Viton® for sealing. This material can withstand a wide range of temperatures and is very durable.
The most common reason that fuel drain valves drip is due to dirt buildup in the fuel. The dirt collects in the lowest part of the fuel tank where the fuel valve is located. This dirt can cut the o-ring, or keep the valve from fully sealing. In SAF-AIR valves, the o-ring can be replaced when it starts to fail so you can continue to use the valve, rather than throwing it away.
SAF-AIR Products, Inc. push-type fuel drain valves are close tolerance valves of simple design. These valves provide the most trouble-free operation of any other line of valves in the industry. SAF-AIR valves are manufactured with an o-ring placed on the stem to seal against a flat seat on the body. This design eliminates an area where dirt can gather, thus putting an end to the main cause of fuel drain valve drip. Models CAV-110 & CAV-110H-4 are popular choices to install on gascolators.
