Waits Valve is a leading manufacturer of Welded Forged Steel Gate Valves, offering two bonnet designs. The first design is a bolted bonnet with male and female joints and spiral wound gaskets, and ring joint gaskets are also available upon request. The second design is a welded bonnet with threaded seal weld joints. Full penetration strength weld joints are available upon request.
Waits Valve high quality Welded Forged Steel Gate Valve is mainly used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, natural gas and power. These valves control flow by lifting and lowering the gate and only support full open or full closed operation. If you happen to have this need, just ask for us! We are always at the forefront to serve you!
Welded Forged Steel Gate Valve is mainly used for on off applications where the fluid flows in a straight line and requires minimal flow restriction. The closing piece of the gate valve can stop or allow the fluid to pass through the valve, and its function is similar to the opening or closing of the gate, so it is called a gate valve. If this explanation is not clear, you can contact us and we can send you an operation video!
Because the shape of the gate is similar to a wedge, it is also called a wedge. When the valve is opened, the closing piece is fully retracted into the valve, leaving a complete opening for the fluid. Therefore, the pressure drop or flow restriction through the valve is small.
