The 1-1/4 in. brass inline check valve with Viton seal (part 944406V) provides compact, spring-loaded backflow prevention where fuels, hydrocarbons, or heat would destroy a standard Buna-N seat — the Viton (FKM) seal runs to a maximum of 325°F and handles 125 psi saturated steam. Rated 400 psi WOG with a low 1/2 psi cracking pressure, polyetherimide disc, and a patented disc guide that prevents side loading. Female NPT both ends. Made in Italy.

Performance & Testing
- Viton (FKM) seal — fuels, oils, hydrocarbons, and service heat that Buna-N cannot take
- Low 1/2 psi cracking pressure — opens with minimal upstream pressure
- Spring-loaded for fast seating; perfect seating at both high and low pressure
- Patented disc guide prevents side loading — stable, chatter-resistant operation
- Compact, high-capacity design with a head-loss-minimizing flow profile
- Not lead-free — for potable water supply lines, choose a lead-free certified valve (see Lead-Free Valves in our Valves menu)

Typical Applications
Backflow prevention on fuel and oil transfer lines, hydrocarbon processing, hot-water and steam-condensate service to 125 psi steam, compressed air with oil carryover, and heated industrial loops beyond the 210°F limit of Buna-N. The 1/2 psi cracking pressure also suits low-head gravity and recirculation systems. Not for potable water supply (not lead-free).
Cross-References & Interchange
Replacing another brand's 1-1/4 in. brass inline check valve with FKM/Viton trim? Match nominal size, end connections, cracking pressure, and pressure rating for a direct fit — or send us your part number and we will confirm the interchange. Water, air, or general-purpose service? The 1-1/4 in. Buna-N version (944406) costs less and covers everything up to 210°F. Corrosive chemicals? Step up to the 1-1/4 in. 316 SS inline check valve (949406).
