General Info

DFT®, formerly known as Durable® Fluid Technology, has been making in-line check valves and severe service control valves for over 75 years. It started with a customer’s need for a small metal-seated check valve that could be installed in any position while providing tight shut-off. The Basic-Check® valve was developed to satisfy that need. Over the following decades, other customers’ needs led to the development of the ALC®, BNC®, DLC®, DSV®, Excalibur®, FBC™, GLC®, GPV™, PDC®, SCV® , TLW® and WLC® styles of in-line silent axial flow check valves. Each of these DFT® in-line check valves addresses the particular needs of today’s customer.
