Description
90° Manual Flow Controllers – Male x Tube (Uni-Directional)
Our 90° Uni-Directional Manual Flow Controllers are designed for precise airflow regulation in pneumatic systems. Featuring a male threaded connection and a convenient push-fit tube connection, these compact elbow speed controllers provide reliable control of pneumatic cylinders and actuators.
The integrated manual adjustment allows airflow to be restricted in one direction while permitting free flow in the opposite direction, making them ideal for controlling cylinder operating speeds in compressed air applications.
Key Features
- Uni-Directional Flow Control: Adjustable airflow restriction in one direction with free flow in the opposite direction.
- 90° Elbow Design: Compact configuration for convenient pneumatic tube connections.
- Push-Fit Connection: Quick and secure installation of metric pneumatic tubing.
- Male Thread: BSPT tapered male connection, with metric M5 options available.
- Manual Adjustment: Integrated flow adjustment for controlling pneumatic cylinder speeds.
- Durable Construction: Engineering plastic and nickel-plated brass components.
- Maximum Working Pressure: 10 bar.

How Uni-Directional Flow Control Works
These pneumatic speed controllers incorporate an adjustable needle valve and internal check valve. Airflow is restricted in one direction according to the manual adjustment setting, while the opposite direction allows unrestricted return flow.
This provides controlled movement of pneumatic cylinders and actuators without unnecessarily restricting airflow in both directions.
Important: Confirm the required flow-control direction before installation. These fittings are designed for air and vacuum applications only and must not be used for water or hydraulic systems.
