Stockton Valve carries many brands of Rack and Pinion Actuators. Both in Double Acting Rack and Pinion Actuators and Spring Return Rack and Pinion Actuators.  Rack and Pinion Actuators provide an economical way to obtain optimal control of valve rotation.

A rack and pinion is a type of linear actuator that comprises a pair of gears which convert rotational motion into linear motion. The circular pinion engages teeth on a linear “gear” bar – the rack. Rotational motion applied to the pinion will cause the rack to move to the side, up to the limit of its travel.
