Valves for Inflatable Boats
Leafield Marine inflation/deflation valves are widely considered the best available for inflatable boats.
Leafield Marine D7 Valve
The Leafield Marine D7 valve is designed to replace the highly successful C7 Valve - the favoured inflatable boat valve for use in demanding applications such as Military and Commercial RIBs, River rafts and Inflatable Boats.
The new D7 Valve has several benefits over the previous model with improved inflation/deflation speed. It has an enhanced clamping method with an ‘O’ ring seal added to the valve core to reduce the risk of leaks.
ACETAL (POM) plastic parts give high strength, chemical and ozone resistance.
The seal is designed so that it cleans the seal surface as it operates; this also reduces the risk of leakage due to dirt contamination.
When the cap is fitted the rugged retaining strap is hidden from view to prevent snagging on other equipment. Simple cap replacement - it does not require the valve to be removed.
The D7 valve has a shorter internal profile than other valves making it ideal for smaller diameter tubes, for example, inflatable kayak floors.
- High flow.
- Smooth, low profile cap.
- Compact internal profile to prevent damage to fabric.
- Extremely rugged and reliable.
- The core includes an 'O' ring to optimize sealing on fabric.
- Core can be removed from the outside of the tube for cleaning.
- Cap acts as a secondary seal.
- 100% tested during production.
- High quality materials to ensure long life.
Leafield Marine C7 Valve
The C7 valve has become the preferred inflatable boat valve for use in demanding applications such as Military and Commercial RIBs, River rafts and Inflatable Boats.
Its stylish appearance has also won it many fans in the luxury RIB and tender market.
When the cap is fitted the rugged retaining strap is hidden from view to prevent snagging on other equipment.
Simple cap replacement - it does not require the valve to be removed.
The seal is designed so that it wipes the seal surface as it operates; this reduces leakage due to dirt contamination.
- High flow.
- Smooth, low profile cap.
- Rugged.
- 100% tested during production.
- High quality materials to ensure long life.
- Cap acts as a secondary seal.
- Core can be removed from the outside of the tube for cleaning.
