Chemical Resistant DN15 1000 PSI 1/2 to 12 inch 316 Stainless Steel Gate Valve

1. Description

Gate valves are widely used for all types of applications and are suitable for both above ground and underground installation. Not least for underground installations it is paramount to choose the right type of valve to avoide high replacement costs.

2. Advantages

Gate valves are often used when minimum pressure loss and a free bore is needed. When fully open, a typical gate valve has no obstruction in the flow path resulting in a very low pressure loss, and this design makes it possible to use a pipe-cleaning pig. A gate valve is a multiturn valve meaning that the operation of the valve is done by means of a threaded stem. As the valve has to turn multiple times to go from open to closed position, the slow operation also prevents water hammer effects.
