POPPET VALVE

Poppet Valve :

A poppet valve is a valve consisting of a hole, and a tapered plug. The shaft guides the plug portion by sliding through a valve guide. In most applications a pressure differential helps to seal the valve and in some applications also opens it.

Advantages:

Very robust and resilient construction.

Application:

Industrial directional control valves.
