Coats 8182317 3-Way Control Valve for 182352 Valve Handle

When your bead breaker shovel arm starts moving erratically or losing breaking force, the culprit is usually the thumb control valve. The Coats 8182317 is the OEM replacement 3-way control valve built specifically for the Coats 182352 valve handle, and it's the part that brings your bead breaker back to reliable, consistent operation.

This miniature 3-way thumb control valve governs the shovel arm's movement, controlling retraction so you can break beads cleanly without fighting the machine. It mounts in an aluminum housing for a solid, leak-resistant fit, and installs as a direct replacement in your existing valve handle housing. No modifications, no fabrication. The valve slides in where the original sat.

If you're seeing sluggish retraction, inconsistent shovel movement, or low breaking power, this is the part to swap before it costs you more time. A failing control valve doesn't get better on its own, and a misbehaving bead breaker slows down every tire job it touches. Replacing it with the correct Coats OEM part means you're not guessing on fitment or material quality. We stock Coats replacement parts and ship fast, so your machine is back in rotation without a long wait.
