simple one way valve

[opticsman]

Hi All. I am interested in simple one way valves ( such as the flapper type) . This is not my field but i wonder if this type would be suitable for use within a neoprene squeeze "bulb" ( like the hand squeezed blower used for dust removal- some have a nozzle). Would there any particular problems (robustness?) if used within neoprene? Id appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thanks in advance opticsman.

The general answer is 'no'. But if you are serching for advice on the best type of check-valve (non return-one-way valve) you will have to give full technical details of application and and process and your exceptations to lifetime and cost.

Maybe Vernay has something you could use. Depends on your application.
