Revolutionizing Fluid Power Chevrolet engine tappets, springs, and retainers were the ingredients that Charlie Ross used to make the first poppet valve after a fire destroyed Detroit Seamless Steel Tube Company in 1917. Charlie, a master mechanic, needed to resume production in a hurry and could not wait for shipments of replacement valves from Europe. Soon after, he filed his first patent and in 1921, Charlie Ross, StClair Cameron and four others incorporated the Ross Operating Valve Company. Today, ROSS CONTROLS® proudly continues as a private company owned by the Cameron family and the ROSS spirit...

The ROSS Poppet Valve . . . A ROSS Speciality from the Beginning Positive Sealing Self-Cleaning and Dirt Tolerant Inlet air pressure forces the inlet poppet upward, pushing the poppet seal firmly against the seat. The higher the inlet pressure, the greater the sealing force. Note that the seal is engaged perpendicular to the seat; there is no sliding action to damage and wear the seal, or to cause erratic friction. The flow velocity for a given volume of air is dependent upon the area through which it is flowing. The smaller the area, the greater the velocity. In poppet valves, the smallest flow-through...
