The most common causes of gate valve failure are wear and corrosion. Over time, gate valves tend to wear out. Corrosion can cause the disc to get stuck in the open or closed position. When the handle is stressed, the valve stem leading from the handle to

In the shut-off valve, the flow of water is controlled by a movable mandrel, and the flow of water is restricted by lowering the mandrel to a fixed valve seat.

Cast iron gate valves are used in commercial and industrial applications. Its typical services include: hot and cold water, HVAC, steam, gas and other general utility services.

In a system with irregular changes in high temperature, the gate valve will leak due to the load in the valve end pipe.

Wafer type is a common style of butterfly valve, which is cheaper than lug type. The wafer butterfly valve is installed between two flanges. The valve is held in place from flange to flange by using bolts or studs and nuts. Of course, this type of install

The valve cage is a part of the valve, which surrounds the valve plug and is located in the valve body. The valve cage is the main component that determines the fluid flow in the valve. As the stopper moves, more cage openings are exposed and the flow rat

The gate valve has a closing/closing mechanism. There is an upward internal gate device that allows the medium to flow and closes the valve downward. A distinctive feature of the gate valve is its straight passage, which reduces pressure loss and is easy

Gate valves are very reliable in shutting off the water supply. They are usually used as shut-off valves for the main water supply line and branch water supply lines, although ball valves are gradually becoming more and more popular in these applications.

Forged steel gate valves are available in three bonnet designs. The first design is a bolted bonnet with male and female joints and spiral wound gaskets, made of F304/graphite. Ring joint gaskets are also available on request. The second design is a welde

Gate valves are widely used in all types of applications, suitable for above-ground and underground installations. Especially for underground installations, it is important to choose the correct type of valve to avoid high replacement costs.

Ball valves are more effective in forming tight seals and have higher reliability and life than gate valves, but they are more expensive. They are often used to shut down and control applications. Because the ball valve can be opened and closed instantane

The gate valve allows the user to control the flow pressure instead of simply closing or opening it. Compared with ball valves, gate valves provide users with more control over water flow and pressure, but they cannot let users choose to stop the water fl

The closing function of gate valves is very good. They provide laminar flow with minimal pressure loss.

You can expect the service life of the shut-off valve to be approximately 10 to 25 years, with an average of 20 years. However, if they are not "exercise" once a year or two years, then when you really need to close the valve for a pipeline emer

Industrial applications such as power generation, mining and chemical industries use gate valve. What makes it useful is that the design limits flow barriers. In addition, there is minimal pressure drop. This kind of valve can also be used when the pressu
