[Bill Manke]

Looking for a 1/4" solenoid that can stand up to corrosive acid, Have tried parker stainless steel but still having problems. Any sugestions? Thanks Bill.

What grade stainless is the Parker valve you are useing you may have to go to a higher grade stainless or a different type valve .
What is failing on the Parker, the seat, the needle, the body, the threads??

Not sure what grade it is. Came on markVII. seat is pitting from chemical.

Bill, Here is a site where you can find a valve you might use, it also has a chemical resistant material chart to tell what is best material for your chemical being used
These are very good valves I have used them a lot in my other life many years ago.

I think I would try a different chemical or at least cut back on acid. You can clean without high acid that damages everything including your automatic, walls, floors tubing, equipment and hopefully not customer cars.
