Matco Brake Parking Valve
The valve works really well. Easy to install. It will not hold full braking pressure forever, so chocks are necessary if youre parked more than a few hours.
Small, light and well designed.
Installed in my Velocity XL. Its so small that it fits between the side wall of the center keep and the deluxe mount T cover that goes over it. Works perfectly, and definitely worth it!
Very small and compact. Looks to be of good quality. Mounting is through the center of the body and package contains 2 rubber washers to use under the bolt head/washer.
Found a metal shaving inside one fitting and was easily removed.

Per the supplier: There is no internal spring action to the valve handle. It will stay in position where ever it is released. There are adapter fittings on the valve that allow connection to 1/8 NPT male thread. There are no fittings for connection to the valve included since they are dependent on the tubing used. All connections to the valve are 1/8 NPT female (so male fitting is needed on tubing side).
The weight of this unit is 0.28 lbs.
The parking brake lever is applied after the aircraft brakes have been applied.
The Matco part number for this is PV-D.
The 06-17200 acts as a resettable check valve. When the valve is in the open position, there is free flow in both directions. When the valve is moved to the closed position, there is free flow to the brake but checked flow back and the brake pressure is maintained at whatever the maximum level was applied. Once the valve is moved back to the open positions, free flow in both directions is re-established.
Mil-H-5606 hydraulic fluid, which is mineral based, is recommended.
Yes, we can special order a rebuild kit for P/N# 06-17200. This rebuild kit will include 8 o-rings, 2 pop it valves and 2 springs. Please contact sales for price, lead time, and ordering.
