You know that feeling when your loader bucket drifts down while you’re trying to level a pile of gravel, or when your implement won’t stay put where you positioned it? That’s usually a worn-out hydraulic valve talking. This 3-spool open center valve solves those headaches by giving you precise control over three separate hydraulic functions, with float detents on the first and third spools to keep attachments exactly where you want them.
What You’re Getting
- Three independent spool controls for operating multiple hydraulic cylinders or motors
- Float detents on spools 1 and 3 let your loader bucket or blade follow ground contours naturally
- Open center design works with your tractor’s existing hydraulic system without modifications
- Adjustable relief valve keeps pressure between 1500-2500 PSI to protect your equipment
- 30 GPM flow capacity handles demanding applications like loader work and implement operation
Built for Real Farm Work
This valve is designed for tractors running loaders, backhoes, grading blades, or any combination of hydraulic implements. The open center design means it’ll work with most utility and compact tractors that already have open center hydraulic systems. Whether you’re moving manure, grading driveways, or operating a hay spear, this valve gives you the control you need to work efficiently.
Made to Last
Cross builds these valves to handle the constant cycling and high pressures that come with farm work. The machined steel construction and quality seals mean you’ll get years of reliable service, even when you’re pushing the limits during busy seasons. The built-in relief valve protects both the valve and your implements from pressure spikes.
Good to Know
This is a direct bolt-in replacement for most open center valve applications. The 3/4-inch NPT inlet and outlet ports, plus 1/2-inch work ports, are standard sizes that’ll match most tractor setups. If you’re not sure about your current valve configuration, take a photo of what you have before ordering—it’ll save you time and hassle.
