Gate Valve

Gate Valve

The Gate Valveย 

A stainless steel fitting designed to provide full-flow control in industrial piping systems. Ideal for contractors, this valve uses a sliding gate mechanism to start or stop fluid or gas flow with minimal pressure drop. Itโ€™s perfect for isolation applications where a straight-through flow path is required. Installation is quick and flamelessโ€”simply press-fit the valve between pipes for a secure, leak-free seal without welding or threading. Made from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, this valve ensures durability and reliability in demanding environments, including water, steam, air, and chemical systems.

Key Features

  • Proven Technology: Simple, robust design ensures long-term system reliability.
  • Flameless & Clean Installation: Press-fit connection eliminates welding and threading, reducing safety risks and installation time.
  • Cost Efficiency: Cuts installation and repair time by over 50% compared to traditional methods.
  • Versatile Sealing Options: EPDM seals are standard; FKM seals available for high-temperature and chemical applications.
  • Vibration Absorption: Elastomeric seals accommodate expansion, contraction, and system movement.
