YV Tipless Nut
Simplify Valve Gate Moulding
The YV Tipless Nut is engineered to simplify the needs of Valve Gate moulding requirements.
The YV valve nut functions without the need for a high-conductivity tip, providing open flow processing, minimising melt shear, lowering the overall pressure drop through the gate and providing an optimum repeatable processing window with a cosmetic gate.
YV valve nuts are ideal for processing residence sensitive polymers or fast colour changes due to the continual movement of all polymer in the gate, shot after shot.
