A pinch valve for pinching closed a tube which has a linear actuator connected pivotally a pointer. The linear actuator is parallel to the tube and the end of the pointer that engages the tube is made to follow a path that is perpendicular to the tube when the valve is closed. When the pinch valve is closed, the pointer is perpendicular to, and supported by, both the linear actuator and the tube.
