MALLARD® 4-PIECE VALVES The premier valve of the injection molding industry, the MALLARD® 4-piece valve is without a doubt the most versatile product of its type in the industry today. Utilizing a 'building block' design concept, the MALLARD® valve provides numerous advantages for any processing need, including: Replaceable wear components Tough, reusable stainless steel retainer Self-cleaning free flow design Availability for all injection molding machine makes and models Advanced computer design technology All valve designs allow use of the same retainer and rear seat, and incorporate a replaceable front seat and check ring concept. That saves you money, and allows for easy customization of your valve for any need! MALLARD® 4-PIECE STANDARD SLIDING RING VALVE The standard MALLARD® valve is made of high-speed abrasion resistant powdered metal materials and has a replaceable heat treated stainless steel retainer for maximum toughness and corrosion resistance. MALLARD® 4-PIECE CARBIDE-FACED VALVE For extreme processing conditions, we offer MALLARD® valves that are manufactured utilizing carbide-faced components. These tough valves carry the industry's only Three-Year Wear-Through Guarantee on all carbide-faced surfaces. MALLARD® 4-PIECE SPINNER VALVE The Spinner valve is a direct replacement for a standard ball check valve, and features a 4-piece interlocking design. Perfect for applications using non-filled resins, fast injection cycles and high speed screw rotation, the Spinner valve provides the latest technology for reliable performance. When processing fluoropolymer applications, we recommend the Spinner design manufactured from ultra corrosion resistant Inconel and/or Hastelloy materials. For optimum flexibility, all Spinner parts are completely interchangeable with MALLARD® 4-piece standard and carbide-faced valves. MALLARD® 4-PIECE ALL STAINLESS STEEL VALVE As an option, MALLARD® valves can be manufactured utilizing highly corrosion resistant CPM® S90Vmaterials for extra protection in extreme conditions such as molding PVC. MALLARD® ZPRINGLOK® 4-PIECE VALVE The MALLARD® Zpringlok® valve combines the benefits of positive check ring shut-off with the quality design of the 4-piece interlocking valve. The latest technology for reliable performance, the design features a stainless steel spring located in the check ring and does not require screw movement to close the valve. Use is recommended for high-speed non-filled, low viscosity molding environments where shot consistency with conventional slider or locking-ring valves is a concern - such as liquid crystal polymer (LCP), liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and MuCell applications. For optimum flexibility, all Zpringlok® parts are completely interchangeable with MALLARD® 4-piece standard, Spinner and carbide-faced valves.
