Featuring a low-heat, energy-efficient coil, industrial-grade brass body, and durable VITON gasket, it delivers rapid actuation in under one second and boasts a lifespan exceeding one million cycles. Ideal for demanding environments, this valve balances reliability and efficiency, though it is not suited for continuous duty beyond 8 hours or water-based projects. ## Description desertcart.com: U.S. Solid 3/8" Brass Electric Solenoid Valve - 12V DC, VITON Gasket, Direct Acting, Normally Closed for Air, Gas, Fuel Applications : Industrial & Scientific ## Features - -NEW- Re-engineered low power coil with up to 50% less heat generation. The valve starts as 19W and as it heat up to operating temperature power reduces to approx. 10-13W. - Constructed of industrial grade brass, this valve is corrosion resistant, more conducive for welding, optimal for higher temperature projects, and can be used with gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene oil, natural gas, air etc. Due to the chemical composition of brass, this valve should NOT be used with projects involving drinking water or other water projects. - This valve was manufactured with a VITON seal. VITON is the most durable and high performance rubber material with the ability to resist high temperatures and corrosive chemicals and other fluids like gasoline, diesel fuel, oils, and lubricants. - This highly responsive valve will open and close in less than 1 second when actuated; meaning it will open or close the flow instantaneously when energized or de-energized. Also, our U.S. SOLID engineers have determined that the life cycle of this valve is well over a million cycles with proper operating conditions and maintenance. - PLEASE NOTE: This valve is NOT a continuous duty valve and should NOT be in continuous use for more than 8 hours in a single cycle; to do so will shorten the life of the valve and may cause the core of the valve to burn out. If you need a continuous duty valve for your project please search for our U.S. SOLID Motorized Ball Valves. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007N0GRIE | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,289 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #1 in Solenoid Valves | | Brand Name | U.S. Solid | | Connector Type | Threaded | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (2,191) | | Exterior Finish | Rubber | | Inlet Connection Size | 0.38 Inches | | Inlet Connection Type | National Pipe Tapered | | Manufacturer | U.S. Solid | | Manufacturer Part Number | USS2-00006 | | Material Type | Brass | | Maximum Pressure | 101 Pound per Square Inch | | Model Number | USS2-00006 | | Number of Ports | 2 | | Outlet Connection Size | 0.38 Inches | | Outlet Connection Type | Threaded | | Set Name | 1-PACK | | Size | 3/8 Inch | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Specification Met | IP65 | | Thread Size | 3/8 inch | | Thread Type | NPT | | UPC | 853996003292 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Valve Type | solenoid valve | ## Product Details - **Brand:** U.S. Solid - **Exterior Finish:** Rubber - **Inlet Connection Size:** 0.38 Inches - **Inlet Connection Type:** National Pipe Tapered - **Material:** Brass - **Maximum Operating Pressure:** 101 Pound per Square Inch - **Number of Ports:** 2 - **Outlet Connection Size:** 0.38 Inches - **Outlet Connection Type:** Threaded - **Specification Met:** IP65 ## Images ![U.S. Solid 3/8" Brass Electric Solenoid Valve - 12V DC, VITON Gasket, Direct Acting, Normally Closed for Air, Gas, Fuel Applications - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91-hB5gFLHL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Material Type, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I want a 12 volt solenoid valve to turn on my extra fuel tank, in the bed of my truck. will the 12 volt coil last, when left on for long periods of** A: Even with low current (~ 2A) feeding this valve, when I tried to leave it on for a long time this valve got really hot. My test was about 30 minutes, and I ended up removing the valve from my design. I was hoping to use this as a redundant, fail safe valve, and tried a simple circuit to limit the current at the solenoid, but it still got hot when turned on. Too bad, because for the price this valve is well-built for intermittent operation. **Q: I'm looking for an electric valve that can release co2 at bursts, ideally at least 100 individual bursts from a single 12g cylinder. Can this do?** A: Sounds like you're looking for a high-pressure valve or trigger? This ain't it. A typical bbq propane tank is only 100 or 200 psi. Your 12g is 850/900 psi. **Q: Would this be good for a train horn set up** A: I'm sure it would be. The one I ordered just burned up as soon as I turned it on. I use to have train horns and hooked them up to air and the electric valve I hooked up to regular horn steering wheel. Worked awesome **Q: What is the operating time (closed to open) of the valve?** A: sorry don't know an exact time. was only interested in opening long enough to fill a fuel tank and closing to stop fuel flow. ## Frequently Bought Together - U.S. Solid 3/8" Electric Solenoid Valve 12-VDC, VITON Gasket, Air, Gas, Fuel Normally Closed - SUNGATOR 3/8'' NPT Brass Hose Barb Fittings, 3/8'' NPT Male Thread to 3/8 Inch Barbed Air Hose Fittings, 3/8 Inch Brass Air Line Repair Connectors for Compressor, Fuel, Oil (2-Pack) - Joywayus Brass Hose Fitting,90 Degree Elbow,3/8" Barb x 3/8" NPT Male Pipe Water/Fuel/Air (Pack of 2) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/7305971-u-s-solid-3-8-brass-electric-solenoid-valve-12v](https://www.desertcart.be/products/7305971-u-s-solid-3-8-brass-electric-solenoid-valve-12v) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-07-13*
