Walvoil SD18 Hydraulic Directional Control Valve Spool – Type 2, 3-Position, A & B Open Neutral
The Walvoil SD18 Type 2 Double Acting Hydraulic Spool is designed for use with compatible Walvoil SD18 hydraulic directional control valves. Featuring a 3-position, double-acting configuration, this replacement spool provides directional flow control for hydraulic cylinders and actuators used in agricultural, mobile and industrial hydraulic applications.
The Type 2 spool connects both A and B work ports to tank in the neutral position, allowing pressure at the work ports to be released through the tank return path. This distinguishes it from Type 1 spools, which have A and B closed in neutral. Suitable for replacement, maintenance and repair of compatible Walvoil SD18 hydraulic control valve assemblies requiring an open-to-tank neutral configuration.
Important Note: This Type 2 spool has A and B connected to tank in neutral. It should not be used as a direct substitute for a spool with A and B closed in neutral unless the hydraulic circuit is designed for this configuration. The neutral flow path may allow a connected actuator to move under external load. Confirm the correct spool type and valve compatibility before installation.
