Gate Valves

A Gate valve is an on-off or a shut-off valve. It is not used to regulate flow as erosion of disc and seat may cause leakage. A gate valve in partially open or closed position is also susceptible to vibration.
Where quick and frequent operation is essential use of quarter turn valves such as ball valves and plug valves must be considered.

Gate valves are available with variety of disks.

• Solid Wedge
• Flexible Wedge
• Split Wedge
• Parallel Disk
