Cartridge Valves or Hydraulic cartridge valves are compact valves. These valves are used in circuits from .1 GPM to 100 GPM to provide pressure, and directional flow control. Cartridge Valves began as simple relief valves, check valves, and flow control valves. The combination od regular cartridge valves allow for any circuit to be designed whether the circuit is for Industrial or Mobile equipment. Designers can easily create unique, and specifically designed circuits using a variety of cartridge valves. Cartridge Valves are manufactured in a variety of different sizes suitable for any circuit design for industrial or mobile equipment. Manufacturers finotek produces and sell a variety of cartridge valves.

Why Cartridge Valves are so Important
Cartridge Valves started off simply as check valves, flow control valves, and relief valves. Cartridge valves over time have evolved into interchangeable circuits for both industrial and mobile equipment. Almost every cartridge valve is interchangeable. Manufacturers such as Finotek Machinery produce interchangeable reliable cartridge valves suitable for any industrial or mobile equipment use. There is not one hydraulic product on the market today that is as interchangeable and readily available to buyers as cartridge valve; making cartridge valves one of the most reliable products on the market.
