Check Valves

(OP)
Is there such a thing as a fire safe check Valve?
And if so would anyone know any Canadian Suppliers, I'm looking at sizes under 2", 316SS.

RE: Check Valves

Define firesafe...What temperature?

A ST.ST. valve with no seals would stand up to some heat, but it wont take long for the heat to deform the seat and the higher the working pressure the quicker the the valve will spill oil over the seat.
