SAUNDERS 2-way valve body is the basic building block of diaphragm valve technology providing cavity free bi-directional flow and optimum drainability.
 The forging process results in a homogeneous surface that is free of defects such as porosity, inclusions, or shrinkage cavities. This defect-free surface is an ideal substrate for the high levels of mechanical and electropolished surfaces demanded by the clean processing industries to maintain sterility and optimize cleaning processes.
