flow restrictorsMott Porous Metal Flow Restrictors

Mott precision porous metal flow restrictors are reliable, costeffective replacements for orifices, capillaries, or micrometering valves. A porous metal flow restrictor is, in effect, a multiple orifice device with many very small holes, creating a vast number of random pathways. Typically, a Mott porous metal restrictor has a porous surface area 500 times that of an equivalent orifice.

  • Less friction, longer life
  • Repeatable performance
  • Greater corrosion resistance
