Repairing leaking valves in industrial pipelines is a laborious and costly operation involving extended downtime and production losses. Losses are minimized when valves are reground in situ precluding the need to dismantle and remove defective valves from the pipeline.

The LarsLap patented mechanically driven portable valve grinders and specialty valve lapping tools provide the proven solution for on-line valve reconditioning. Standard valve grinder models are available in four overlapping sizes to cover most all types of valves 1/4" - 52" in diameter. The valve lapping equipment is versatile with exceptional ease of handling and operation.
