The Push Pull Valve—also referred to as a Hand Draw Valve—is a manually operated 3/2-way pneumatic valve designed for simple, reliable air control in a wide range of industrial applications. The valve functions by pushing to activate and pulling to deactivate the air flow (or vice versa depending on configuration), providing a fast and tactile way to start or stop air supply to machinery or circuits.

Available in port sizes ranging from 1/8” to 1/2” BSP or NPT, the valve can be used in both inline installations or panel-mounted configurations. Its rugged metal construction—typically in aluminum, brass, or zinc alloy—ensures long service life, even in demanding industrial environments.

These valves are ideal for manual air control, emergency shut-off, or maintenance lockout in pneumatic systems. The NBR sealing provides compatibility with standard compressed air, with optional FKM (Viton) for higher temperature or chemical environments. The design enables quick isolation or activation of air flow without the need for electrical components, making it particularly useful in ATEX or power-restricted areas.
