Using a Replacement Poppet for Type R Check Valves

Get information on what a poppet does and how to replace the component in your type R check valves.

The poppet for a type R check valve is a critical component to the functionality of the valve. The poppet is activated when the valve is presented with back-flow, and it seals on the seat seal in the check valve. The poppet can become worn over its normal service life, so it’s important to replace them when performing regular maintenance.

If you’ve reached the point where it’s time for a poppet replacement, here’s what you need to know.

How Poppets for Type R Check Valves Are Constructed
