Applications:

Gate valves are commonly used in applications where a straight-line flow of fluid with minimum restriction is desired. They are often used in industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, chemical processing, and power generation.

Advantages:

.They provide a tight seal when closed.

.They offer low friction loss due to the unobstructed flow path when fully open.

.They can be used in both high-pressure and low-pressure systems.

Materials:

Gate valves are available in various materials, including cast iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, brass, and bronze, to suit different applications and operating conditions.

Maintenance:

Proper maintenance is crucial to ensure the reliable operation of gate valves. This may include regular inspection, lubrication, and replacement of worn components.
