Tesla Mini Ball Valve - 8mm - GCM08

The primary purpose is to safely stop the flow of gas, allowing for maintenance or servicing of connected appliances or gas lines.

This valve is specifically designed for 8mm gas lines.

The product description does not specify pressure ratings. For high-pressure applications, consult a professional to ensure this valve meets the required safety standards.

The valve features a lever handle. A quarter-turn (90 degrees) of the lever typically indicates it is fully open or closed. When the lever is parallel to the pipe, it is usually open; when perpendicular, it is closed.

While the operation is simple, it is recommended that installation on gas lines be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and proper sealing.

Regular visual inspection for any signs of damage or wear is advisable, especially before performing maintenance on the gas system.

Ensure no debris is obstructing the mechanism. Verify proper alignment within the gas line. If the issue persists, the valve may need replacement.

Immediately shut off the gas supply. Re-check the connection tightness and ensure it is properly seated. Use a gas leak detection solution to confirm and re-seal if necessary. If leaks persist, replace the valve.

Check for internal obstructions or damage. Ensure the lever is in the fully closed position. If the valve is old or damaged, it may need to be replaced.
