NATO Supply Class 4820 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 48, which is specifically for valves. More specifically, NATO Supply Class 4820 is for nonpowered valves.
Valves are mechanical devices used to control the flow of fluids (liquids, gases, or slurries) through a system of pipes or tubes. They are essential components in various industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, water treatment, and many others.
Nonpowered valves, as the name suggests, do not require external power sources to operate. They rely on manual or mechanical means to control the flow of fluids. This can include hand-operated valves, lever-operated valves, or valves that are actuated by mechanical systems such as springs or diaphragms.
NATO Supply Class 4820 includes a wide range of nonpowered valves, such as gate valves, globe valves, check valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, and many others. These valves are designed to meet specific requirements for different applications, including controlling the flow rate, regulating pressure, preventing backflow, or isolating sections of a system.
The classification of valves into NATO Supply Groups and Classes helps standardize the identification and categorization of these essential components for military and defense purposes. It ensures that the right valves can be easily identified, procured, and used in various military operations and equipment.
If you need more specific information about a particular type of nonpowered valve within NATO Supply Class 4820, please let me know, and I'll be happy to assist you further.

Supply Items Included in Federal Supply Class 4820
- What is a Check Valve? 60 Items
- A Check Valve (VALVE,CHECK) is a valve permitting flow in one direction only. It does not have a stem, except when equipped with a lever and weight and has no pressure adjustment. It may be inline or cartridge (manifold) design.
- What is a Safety Relief Valve? 28 Items
- A Safety Relief Valve (VALVE,SAFETY RELIEF) is a valve designed to automatically release excessive pressures. It is actuated by static pressure upstream of the valve and is used as a safety valve or relief valve, and may be set to close at a predetermined pressure. It is not designed for regulation of continuously fluctuating loads. It may be inline or cartridge (manifold) design. Excludes VALVE (1), RELIEF, PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE.
- What is a Drain Cock? 11 Items
- A Drain Cock (COCK,DRAIN) is an item with one mounting end and one free flowing end with a metal to metal valve closure. It is designed to drain fluids from radiators, boilers, and similar items.
- What is a Valve Seat? 16 Items
- A Valve Seat (SEAT,VALVE) is a replaceable item designed to provide a stationary seating surface for a mating, moveable item such as a valve disk or the like. The body may have a flange of various shapes. For diesel and gasoline reciprocating engines, see INSERT, ENGINE VALVE SEAT.
- What is a Fluid Pressure Regulating Valve? 10 Items
- A Fluid Pressure Regulating Valve (VALVE,REGULATING,FLUID PRESSURE) is a valve designed to automatically maintain within close limits a predetermined outlet pressure which may be adjustable within a specified range regardless of the higher fluctuating or constant inlet pressure. It is designed for use with compressed gas(es) and various liquids and may include gauges. It may be inline or cartridge (manifold) design. Excludes REGULATOR, PRESSURE, MEDICAL GAS ADMINISTRATION APPARATUS; REGULATOR, OXYGEN, BAROMETRIC CONTINUOUS FLOW; REGULATOR, OXYGEN DEMAND; REGULATOR, OXYGEN DILUTER DEMAND; and valve(1), fluid pressure regulating, aircraft.
- What is a Valve Disk? 47 Items
- A Valve Disk (DISK,VALVE) is an item of various shapes (usually circular, conical, cylindrical, or rectangular) used to prevent or regulate the flow of liquids or gases through the valve. May include a retainer, screw, holder, and the like.
- What is a Valve Body? 29 Items
- A Valve Body (BODY,VALVE) is an item designed to enclose and support the internalpart(s) of a valve.
- What is a Valve Parts Kit? 10 Items
- A Valve Parts Kit (PARTS KIT,VALVE) is do not use if a more specific item name is applicable.
- What is a Hydraulic System Bleeder Valve? 19 Items
- A Hydraulic System Bleeder Valve (VALVE,BLEEDER,HYDRAULIC SYSTEM) is a metallic, threaded, screw-shaped item used in hydraulic brake cylinders, hydraulic power units, missile launching hydraulic systems, and the like, for the purpose of providing a means of releasing air form and/or flushing a hydraulic system. It may be furnished with or without a dust cap. Excludes spring loaded or automatic type air pressure relief valves, and BOLT, FLUID PASSAGE.
- Nozzle,Valve 21 Items
- What is a Check Ball? 28 Items
- A Check Ball (BALL,CHECK) is a spherical shaped device that may be of solid or hollow construction. It is designed to seat in an opening thereby preventing the passage of fluid. It may be used with a spring enabling the ball to become unseated at a predetermined pressure as exerted by the fluid flow and to become reseated in the absence of fluid pressure. For valve balls that include ports see BALL, VALVE, PORTED.
- What is a Flow Control Valve? 39 Items
- A Flow Control Valve (VALVE,FLOW CONTROL) is an inline or cartridge type item designed to control the flow of fluids within a closed system. Excludes items actuated by a predetermined pressure and/or temperature, items designed for use with breathing gasses, or those designed to vent or calibrate fluids.
- What is a Valve Assembly? 17 Items
- A Valve Assembly is an assembly of items consisting of two or more complete valves on a common mounting; mounted on each other; or joined together with fitting(s), hose(s), tube(s), pipe(s), or the like. For items consisting of two or more valves in a common body, See VALVE ASSEMBLY, MANIFOLD.
