UPVC Gate Valve
The UPVC Gate Valve is a robust shut-off valve designed for on/off control of fluid flow in pipeline systems. Manufactured from high-grade Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC), it provides superior resistance to corrosive chemicals and environmental degradation. The valve operates by raising or lowering a solid wedge-shaped gate inside the valve body, enabling full bore flow or complete shut-off without throttling. Ideal for industrial, chemical, and water applications, the UPVC gate valve ensures a leak-proof seal and long-lasting performance in non-pressurized or low-pressure systems.
Key Features of UPVC Gate Valve
Full Bore Flow: Unobstructed passage minimizes pressure drop and allows smooth fluid flow.
Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: Ideal for aggressive and corrosive media due to non-metallic construction.
Durable Construction: Strong and impact-resistant body suitable for heavy-duty usage.
Manual Handwheel Operation: Easy-to-use rising stem design for clear open/close indication.
Low Maintenance: Minimal wear components, no lubrication needed, and simple servicing.
Leak-Proof Design: High-quality elastomer seals provide secure, reliable shut-off.
Versatile Installation: Can be installed in horizontal or vertical positions.
