Packless Radiator Valves
Dole Packless Radiator Valves are
made in a large variety of suitable pat terns to meet all requirements of any kind of Steam or Hot Water Heating System. All patterns embody same con struction, the design only being changed to conform to the required pattern.
Wood knob handle, finely finished; no
metal to come into contact with hand. Stem in one piece; shoulder under
packless disc is part of stem, and shoul der above disc is part of bonnet. Stem does not rise or lower; seat disc holder only rising and lowering on double spiral thread when stem rotates, its free work ing permitting coming to a positive seat when closed. This feature also prevents
grease and dirt being carried through. Spring is case tempered and carries
tension of 75 to 100 pounds when com pressed in valve. Spring rests on top of bonnet shoulder, held in place by lock nut on top of ball bearing feature. This continually pulls seat on stem against packless disc, which, together with small seating lip on upper and lower shoulders that imbeds itself in packless disc, in sures tightness, preventing leakage of air, steam or water. Spring casing of
high grade brass finely machined. Ball bearing feature, consisting of iron
steel balls set between specially hardened bronze, allows high ten sion in spring while per mitting valve to operate freely--an exclusive Dole feature.
Packless disc is. of special composition; made expressly for this valve.
Owing to valve construc tion there is practically no wear on disc, as is proved by
discs which have been in operation for 16 years with no apparent wear or de
terioration.

All Patterns of Dole. Packless Valves Are
Constructed on this Basic Principle.
Discs are specially made according
to different formulas for steam or hot water so that it is necessary to
specify type of system when ordering. Bonnet is extra heavy metal with very
strong hexagon, allowing plenty of metal
where wrench is used. General construction comprises high
est grade brass and bronze metals. Every valve seated and tested on 80 to 90 pounds steam pressure. Roughing-in dimensions as nearly standard as com patible with present variations of dif ferent manufacturers. Packless disc, spring and ball bearing features are standard on all patterns and inter changeable.
