ROD18A-602R Johnson Controls PUSH ROD Kit

Overview

The Johnson Controls ROD18A-602R is an OEM push rod kit designed for the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of water regulating valves. This critical hardware component ensures a precise mechanical linkage between the diaphragm or actuator and the internal valve stem, restoring factory-spec response times and preventing mechanical drifting under varying thermal loads.

Features

• Direct Fit Replacement: Specifically engineered to eliminate the need for field modifications, reducing labor time during maintenance.
• High Tensile Strength: Machined from robust, corrosion-resistant materials to withstand high-cycle operations in demanding environments.
• Precision Calibration: Maintains critical mechanical alignment between the sensing element and the valve plug for accurate flow regulation.
• System Reliability: Minimizes mechanical hysteresis and prevents calibration offsets associated with generic alternatives.

Specifications

• Brand: Johnson Controls
• Part Number: ROD18A-602R
• Compatible Valve Sizes: 2 inches and 4 inches
