Why Tight Shut off Valves with a Squeeze-closed Sleeve are the better option
Tight shut off valves with a rubber hose that squeezes closed are designed to fully open and close tightly to ensure zero leakage. These valve types are relatively simpler in terms of design and operation compared to a ball valve for example, allowing for a repeatable and reliable tight shut off operation. These squeeze-closed types of tight shut off valves are used as a safety function in applications where immediate cut off of the flow of media is of paramount importance.
