Overview

Brass foot valves to keep pump suction lines primed

A foot valve sits on the end of a pump suction pipe, submerged in a tank, sump or well. Inside the brass body a spring-loaded disc opens when the pump draws water and snaps shut when it stops, so the column of water in the suction line cannot drain back. That keeps the pump primed for the next start. The stainless steel strainer around the inlet keeps out leaves, stones and larger debris that would damage the impeller.

Hamza Fasteners stocks brass foot valves from 1/2" to 4" with female BSP threads and stainless strainers. They are used on centrifugal pumps lifting from underground tanks, wells and irrigation ponds, on fire pump tank suctions where applicable, and on dewatering pumps. Keep the valve clear of the tank floor so silt is not drawn in. Ask our Dubai counter for sizes and prices.

FAQ

Common questions

What does a foot valve do?
It is a check valve with a strainer fitted at the bottom of a suction pipe. It lets water flow up to the pump but stops it running back down when the pump stops, so the pump stays primed, while the strainer keeps debris out.
Why does my pump lose prime even with a foot valve?
Usually the disc is held open by debris, the seal is worn, or there is an air leak in the suction pipe joints above the valve. Lift and clean the foot valve and check all suction joints for air ingress.
What size foot valve do I need?
Use the same size as the suction pipe, which is often larger than the pump inlet. An undersized foot valve increases suction losses and can cause cavitation. If in doubt, send the pump model and suction pipe size.
Do you only supply one size?
No, we stock 1/2" to 4" in brass with female BSP threads. Larger flanged foot valves can be sourced on request. Matching check valves, gate valves and suction hose fittings are also stocked. Odd sizes and special materials can be quoted against your specification.
How much does a foot valve cost in Dubai?
Price depends on size and quantity. Send your list on WhatsApp and we will reply with prices and stock. Pump contractors can ask for carton rates on repeat orders. Our counter in Deira can also quote over the phone or in person.
Do you deliver across the UAE and GCC?
Yes. We deliver across the UAE and ship to the GCC and Africa, with delivery time confirmed when you order. Urgent replacements for a pump that has lost prime can often go out the same day.
