HANCOCK CHECK VALVE UPDATE

Post by Trainman4602 »

I have finally finished all the check valves I saved the hardest to make for last. Last week I sent out around 16 orders and then I went to Canton GA to pick up some foundry equipment. I spent the last three days finalizing all the orders.

These valves are made to order, meaning that I can only make the main body and the spanner nut or flanges have to be made up to order. A slow process but they are completed. The next run will be a bit easier as I had to make some fixtures and did some reworking on this batch.

I have 6 valves left to sell. I am sorry to say that I will have to raise the price for the next run, as they are very time consuming to put together. I will hold the current price for the last 6 valves that I have left.
