Product Overview
The MHA BKH DN13 16S 442A is a high-pressure hydraulic ball valve engineered for positive shut-off and flow isolation in demanding industrial hydraulic circuits. Manufactured to the BKH series standard, this two-way ball valve features a robust forged steel body with a precision-ground chrome-plated ball and PTFE-based sealing seats, delivering bubble-tight sealing with minimal operating torque. The DN13 (nominal 1/2″ line size) configuration with 16S connection interface allows direct integration into high-pressure hydraulic power units, manifolds, and modular valve stacks. As a flow control and modular valve component, it serves as a reliable manual isolation point for maintenance, safety lockout, and circuit selection functions in systems operating at pressures up to 500 bar.

Engineering Features & Advantages
- Precision Performance: Precision-lapped ball and seat geometry ensures bubble-tight shut-off with low operating torque, minimizing pressure drop across the valve in the open position and eliminating internal leakage in the closed position.
- High-Pressure Capability: Forged steel body construction rated for continuous service up to 500 bar, suitable for high-pressure hydraulic circuits where standard commercial ball valves would fail.
- Industrial Reliability: Built for continuous operation under severe industrial conditions, with corrosion-resistant plating and durable PTFE/FKM sealing for extended maintenance-free service life.
- Direct Fit Replacement: Precision-manufactured to original MHA specifications for direct replacement, minimising downtime and eliminating fitment issues.
Typical Industrial Applications
As a flow control and modular valve component, it serves as a reliable manual isolation point for maintenance, safety lockout, and circuit selection functions in systems operating at pressures up to 500 bar.
