Design & parts of a gate valve

FlowBiz Exports Gate Valve has a simple design and can be applied in many low-pressure-drop services, making it one of the most common valves today. Gate valves are designed as full-port valves. It means that the valve port is the same size as the inner diameter of the connecting pipe. The full-bore gate valve passes the fluid flow without any obstructions to a flow and does not cause a pressure drop in a pipeline. This also allows for the cleaning of the pipe using a cleaning pig.

A resilient seated gate valve with a non-rising spindle consists of the following parts:

• wedge
• ductile iron valve body
• seating area
• stem (spindle)
• spindle bearing
• bonnet
• packing.
