A pinch valve is a 2/2-way valve designed to shut off or control the flow of corrosive, abrasive, or granular media. It utilizes pressurized air to open or close the valve. In the open position, the valve has no restrictions and allows a wide range of media to pass through the bore. The flexible internal rubber sleeve in the valve keeps the media isolated from the rest of the valve, preventing contamination or damage to the valve’s other components. Figure 1 is an example of a pneumatic pinch valve.

Pinch valves are suited for use with slurries and granular products like sand, cement, gravel, textile fiber, carbon, powder, pellets, chipping, and glass fragments. These valves are cost-effective, reliable, and easy to use, making them desirable in various industrial applications.

The pinch valve diagram in Figure 2 illustrates a pinch valve’s important components. Three major components are the housing (Figure 2 labeled D), the sleeve (Figure 2 labeled E), and the end connections (Figure 2 labeled G). The rubber sleeve is fitted into the housing from inlet to outlet and is the only component that contacts the media. The end connections are bolted, screwed, or threaded at each end to provide support and connection to the valve.
