Inflation Valves

Tier 1 aerospace manufacturers and their suppliers turn to NMG for reliable aerospace valves, including inflation valves for evacuation slides and rafts, backed by unmatched engineering support.

Reliable Inflation Valves for Evacuation Slides and Rafts, made possible by unmatched engineering

Most commercial aircraft have at least one inflatable evacuation slide or raft on board for use in the event of an unplanned landing or atypical situation. NMG manufactures reliable inflation valves for fast, safe inflation of these devices, even under unusual circumstances. The internal seals are designed to maintain inflation levels in gas storage cylinders, and a fill valve and burst disc mitigate pressure relief during inflation, reducing waste and expediting the process. Our innovative engineering team can design components and manufacturing processes that produce quality inflation valves that meet your exacting standards.

Inflation Valve Components

Internal Seals

Inside NMG inflation valves, internal seals are critical to maintaining pressure in a gas storage cylinder for long periods so the cylinder stays ready for use when the need arises.

Inflation Valves

Inflation valves establish a connection between the gas storage cylinder and device to be inflated, such an evacuation slide or a raft.

Burst Discs

A burst disc is a single-use pressure relief device that works alongside our inflation valves to protect inflatable devices, such as evacuation slides and rafts, from filling with air too quickly by providing an alternative pressure relief outlet.

The NMG Quality Difference

Safe, effective inflation of an emergency device aboard an aircraft depends on precision manufacturing of every small component. NMG builds its aerospace valves with multiple quality checks at each facility so they perform reliably when an evacuation slide or raft must deploy. Every member of our team is dedicated to constant improvement of our processes to ensure that we get it right the first time, every time.
