Cast Bronze Gate Valve

The Cast Bronze Gate Valve is a gate valve designed for clean on/off isolation rather than throttling, opening to a full bore that gives an unobstructed flow path and a very low pressure drop when wide open. A rising stem drives a wedge across the seat to give a tight shut-off, while the body is offered in cast bronze to suit a range of media and temperatures from -29°C to 208°C (-20°F to 406°F). Built across 1/2" to 12" and rated pn16 / class 125 to 150, it connects via threaded (npt) or flanged and seals on hard-faced seats for dependable, long-life service. Because the gate must be fully raised or lowered, the valve is intended for fully-open or fully-closed duty and should not be used to regulate flow.
