The Asco 8262G232 Solenoid Valve (8262G232) is a direct-acting, normally closed shutoff valve engineered for moderate—to high-pressure applications in compressed air, water, and light oil systems. Designed with a larger flow capacity in a compact 1/4″ body, it’s ideal for OEM panels, process skids, and test equipment requiring consistent and responsive shutoff performance.
