2/3-way piston valve
(TPC series)

2- or 3-way piston valves are air-driven piston valves used in the air systems, water pressure systems, internal pressure and external pressure systems of tire-curing presses. A specific feature is the use of a special resin in the valve seat, and an excellent seal is maintained over long periods in the high-temperature high-pressure environment required in tire-curing.
It also features easy parts replacement structure in case of maintenance.
