The core of the Larox pinch valve is the elastic sleeve, which is the only part in contact with the medium.
The full bore sleeve integrates the valve to the pipeline
This full bore design eliminates turbulence
and minimizes pressure losses. Technologically advanced Larox sleeves guarantee high wear and corrosion resistance, a trouble
free operation,and extended lifetime. Our sleeves are 100% tight
Larox sleeves are handmade layer by layer in a
quality process covered by ISO 9001:2000. The standard sleeve design consists of three sets of layers: the
inner layer, the reinforcement layer and the outer layer • The inner layer, which is the only part in contact with
the medium, is resistant to wear and chemicals • The reinforcement layer gives the sleeve its pressure retaining
capability. The operating pressure of the sleeve determines the reinforcement fabric to be used in this layer •
The outer layer protects the sleeve from the external process environment.
All standard Larox sleeves are equipped
with opening tags to ensure full valve opening in all conditions
