  • Ensuring Safety & Reliability in Military Vessels JA Moody distributes many different, made in the USA, Lexair, Inc. (Keystone) valves. Such as the fire-safe vent valve that is specifically designed for use as airtight and watertight closures. When it comes to the safety and operational integrity of military vessels, the use of high-quality, reliable components is critical. Vent valves, particularly those used in high-risk areas aboard Navy ships, play a vital role in preventing fire spread and maintaining operational safety. One of the most vulnerable yet essential components of these valves is the intumescent sealing ring—designed to expand in extreme heat, sealing off affected areas to contain flames. However, these sealing rings have a finite shelf life, and if they’ve been stored too long or under improper conditions, they may fail to perform when needed most. By sourcing your vent valves through an authorized distributor like JA Moody, you ensure: ✅ Proper Storage & Shelf-Life Monitoring – Every component meets required specifications. ✅ Strict Quality Control & Traceability – We meticulously track and inspect materials to prevent degradation. ✅ Reliability in High-Risk Environments – Our products are carefully managed to perform when it matters most. Contact the JA Moody technical sales team at sales@jamoody.com for a quote and ensure your materials are compliant, reliable, and mission-ready. #USNavy #Valves #Shipbuilding
