The Bluefire Aerosol Valve With Pipe is specifically designed for complete and continuous discharge of fluids or vapors from pressurized canisters. By fitting a high-precision plastic or metal dip tube (pipe) to the bottom orifice of the valve, this design allows for smooth withdrawal of liquids such as refrigerant, LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and other chemicals from the absolute bottom of containers.
This valve is offered in single-layer or double-layer design to meet various requirements on operating pressure and markets. While the single-layer version is the efficient and light weight solution for typical operating pressure, the heavy-duty double-layer design offers maximum seal protection and highest mechanical strength for high pressure applications in export markets to European Union (EU) countries. The valves with pipes are manufactured on fully automated assembly lines to ensure constant attachment force of the pipe, ideal alignment of the flow orifice and absence of any leaks even after long storage periods.

Dual Structure Availability (Single & Double Layer): We can supply economical single-layer units for ‘normal’ gas filling as well as robust double-layer models for extreme temperature conditions and high internal pressure.
Complete Bottom-Can Drainage: Our precision-cut dip pipes ensure that there is no liquid left in the bottom of the canister, maximizing the volume of product that can be used by the consumer.
Secure Pipe Retention Mechanism: A high-tenacity interference fit is used to anchor the dip tube to the valve housing to prevent the pipe detaching, sliding or crimping during automated gas filling.
Imported EU elastomers and polymer tubing are resistant to cracking, swelling and hardening when in contact with hydrocarbon fuels, LPG blends and synthetic refrigerant oils.
Strict EN417 Quality Assurance: All quality assurance for this European built Valve is strictly in line with European Safety Requirements. This Strict Quality Assurance prior to shipment involves automated testing to check for air-tightness and also for pressure-tolerance, also strict visual checking for correct, high quality finish.
Refrigerant Charging Canisters – Inverted or Upright liquid refrigerant dispensing cans (R134a, R600a, R1234yf) for Automotive Air Conditioning repair as well as Commercial Refrigeration service.
LPG & Camping Cartridges: Liquefied Petroleum Gas suitable for use with portable gas stoves, camping lanterns and industrial blowtorches that require a consistent supply of vapor or liquid.
Specialized Industrial & Automotive Aerosols: Industrial & automotive aerosols, such as degreasers, spray lubricants, rust penetrators and foaming agents, are siphoned from the bottom of the container up.
Our Bluefire aerosol valve with pipe can be fitted to standard 1-inch (25.4mm) aerosol mounting cups. It can be integrated into automatic crimping and filling lines all over the world. We offer an extensive range of OEM/ODM customization options. These include customization of the dip pipe length to the canister height, different internal orifice diameters to allow for precise control of the flow rate, as well as different gasket materials, which are specifically designed for use with unique propellant formulas.
Q1: How do I decide between a single-layer and a double-layer valve with pipe?
A: Single-layer valves for standard pressure gas cans at cost-effective efficiency. Double-layer valves with 2 sealing layers and higher mechanical strength for gas canisters with high pressure, tough transport or for the strict EU safety market.
Q2: Can you customize the pipe length and the inner pipe diameter?
A: Yes. We can make the dip pipe the length to match the canister’s internal depth, and we can make the inner diameter of the dip pipe to suit the viscosity of the chemical or gas filling and desired spray pattern.
Q3: How does Bluefire prevent the dip pipe from falling off inside the can?
A: Our automated assembly process makes use of precise barbed fittings and close mechanical tolerance on the valve stem base in order to achieve highest retention force and sufficient stability against vibration and pressure surges.
