The Black Diamond Check Valve is a genuine replacement part designed to help ensure proper compressor operation by preventing air from flowing back from the tank into the compressor head. This durable valve closes securely once air has been drained from the compressor head, helping eliminate air leaks and restore reliable performance when an existing valve will not close properly. It features a 1/2 in. NPT x 3/8 in. tube connection with a 1/8 in. left side bleeder, along with precision thread specifications including 1/2 14 NPTF on the 1/2 in. O.D., 9/16 24 UNE 2A on the 3/8 in. O.D., and 7/16 24 UN 2A on the 1/4 in. O.D. The 1/4 in. port accepts aluminum, copper, or nylon tubing, making this check valve a reliable solution for maintaining efficient compressor performance.
