Hydraulic Control Valve with Joystick for Loaders and Implements

Description

When you’re running a front-end loader or operating hydraulic implements, having precise control makes all the difference between smooth operation and jerky, frustrating movements. This 2-spool hydraulic valve puts that control right at your fingertips with a responsive joystick handle that lets you manage two separate hydraulic functions with the finesse your work demands.

What You’re Getting

• Joystick control gives you smooth, precise operation of loaders and attachments
• First spool features a handy float position that stays locked—perfect for letting your loader bucket follow ground contours
• Second spool with spring centering automatically returns to neutral when you release it
• Built-in relief valve adjustable from 1500-2500 PSI protects your system from damage
• Open center design works with most tractor hydraulic systems without modifications

Built for Real Farm Work

This valve handles up to 30 GPM flow and connects through standard SAE fittings that’ll work with most tractors and implements. Whether you’re loading hay bales, moving dirt with a box blade, or operating a backhoe attachment, the different spool configurations give you the control you need for each job.

Made to Last

Cross builds these valves to handle the constant pressure changes and heavy use that come with farm work. The internal components are designed to keep working smoothly even after thousands of cycles, and the joystick mechanism holds up to the bumps and vibration of field operation.

Good to Know

The float detent on the first spool is particularly handy for loader work—once you set it, your bucket will automatically follow the ground without constant input from you. Installation requires basic hydraulic knowledge and the right fittings, so have your hydraulic lines ready and make sure to test everything at low pressure before putting it to work.
