ISO of 1/2" Wafer Check valve

I have a two pipe steam system from the 1920's and recently had my hardwood floors replaced and in the process of moving the radiators around and then reinstalling them, I can't find of the wafer style check valves that was on the return side. I can't seem to find anywhere online to buy a replacement and I really don't want to have to re-pipe as I that would require cutting another hole in my new floor.

Any help or guidance is appreciated. This forum and website has helped me understand the heating system in my old home and really appreciate it.

    Wafer style check valve? Unlikely -- more likely a trap of some kind. Can you post a picture of what you are looking for?
