By Janice Wood · March 13, 2012 ·

Curtis Superior Valve Co. has received FAA TSO-C76a approval for five new flush mounted fuel valves.

The new fuel valves are made from brass with stainless steel springs to prevent rust and corrosion and have been tested and approved to meet the FAA TSO-76a standards, company officials said.

Application of these new valves are for Cessna, Piper, Cirrus, and several other aircraft, as well as many experimental and LSA aircraft, officials add.
