Largest Manufacturers of Radiator Valves in the World
The "Genuine Detroit" Type "A" Spring and Disc
Packless Radiator Valve, has been developed to fulfill the need
for a radiator valve that will not leak around the stem nor need
repacking. It does away with the trouble and expense of leakage
to which ordinary valves are subject and its construction makes
it perfectly adapted also for use on vacuum systems where
tightness is essential.
Its handsome appearance harmonizes with good surroundings
and makes it suitable for use in homes, office buildings, hotels etc.
Complicated parts are eliminated, so that the Valve is simple
in construction and so substantial that it carries the assurance of
satisfactory service over a period of years. It is quick opening--

easy turning.
A new and better design of handle is offered for the first time.
It is a hard rubber finish, non-heat conductive, molded type, which will not break,
lose its finish nor work loose on the stem.
Manufactured in angles, corners and globes to 2 in. sizes, and in satin finish
with polished trimmings, nickel plated, Jenkins Bro. discs.
The "Genuine Detroit" No. 101 Quick Opening
Hot Water Radiator Valve Packed Type is designed
to overcome the difficulties of hard turning, always
encountered with shell type valves. It operates on the
principle of an elliptic swinging plate--set at 45 deg. angle
--which is attached to the stem. By revolving the handle
one-half turn to the left, the valve is opened, while one-
half turn to the right closes it. The narrow edge of the
plate presents a very small area 'of contact with the.
body, so that any corrosion or encrustation--due to im
purities in the water--is easily broken away. This con
struction insures the valve turning easily even after years
of service.
The interior plate is concave so that a passage of true
elbow shape through the Valve is developed when the plate
is in full open position. This shape offers much less resist
ance to the flow than is the case with valves of the shell
type, where the liquid is forced to turn at a right angle.
It is particularly sturdy in design with a stem which will stand hard usage and is
equipped with a new type of non-breakable, non-heat-conducting round handle, with
a handsome permanent black hard-rubber finish.
The handle has an indicator which travels between two stops on the body marked
"off" and "on," so a glance shows whether the valve
is opened or closed.
The stuffing box is of gland form and easily adjusted
to prevent leakage around the stem.
The Equalizing Hot-Water Radiator Valve is a
valve of theabove type equipped with a movablestopcol-
lar mounted on the neck and which provides a means
of securing a uniform flow through each radiator, and
permits the system to be easily and perfectly balanced,
and perfect circulation insured. The handle pointer
engages this collar, creating the "on" position. The
adjustment is a very simple exterior one easily made by
the fitter after the. valve is installed and the system is in operation.
