FAR 1300 straight radiator lockshield valve for multilayer, copper or PE pipe

FAR 1300 is a straight radiator lockshield valve normally installed on the radiator return connection. It allows the heating-medium flow to be completely shut off and adjusted for hydraulic balancing of the radiator.

Unlike the angled FAR 1100, the FAR 1300 has a straight design, with the radiator and pipe connections positioned on the same axis.

The pipe side features a FAR 24 × 19 connection. A suitable fitting must be selected according to the pipe material, outside diameter and wall thickness. The valve can be used with suitable fittings for:

• multilayer pipe;
• copper pipe;
• plastic or PE pipe.

It is available as FAR 1300 38 – 3/8″ and FAR 1300 12 – 1/2″. Both versions have a FAR 24 × 19 pipe connection.

The valve features a brass protective cap, a double O-ring seal on the regulating stem and a metal closing element with an additional O-ring seal. The radiator tailpiece is factory pre-sealed with Loctite® Dri-Seal® 5061, while an HPF seat provides sealing between the tailpiece and the valve body.

The chrome-plated finish provides a neat appearance for visible radiator installations. The valve is suitable for heating systems using water or water-glycol mixtures, with a nominal pressure of 10 bar and a maximum operating temperature of 95 °C.

Important fitting information

The pipe fitting is not included with the valve and must be selected according to the pipe type and size.

For 16 × 2 mm multilayer pipe, use:

FAR 6055 58190 – fitting for 16 × 2 mm multilayer pipe with 24 × 19 connection.
