GATE VALVES

Gate Valves

Gate valves are essential for ensuring precise and reliable flow control in industrial processes.
Thanks to their solid structure and efficient design, these valves offer excellent performance in a wide range of applications. 

  • Forged Gate Valves: made with advanced forging techniques that provide them with exceptional strength and durability. Ideal for high-pressure applications and extreme temperatures, these valves are designed to last over time and offer reliable performance even in the most challenging conditions. 
  • Cast Gate Valves: produced through a casting process that allows for greater precision in shape and dimensions. These valves are perfect for applications requiring precise flow regulation and are suitable for various industrial sectors. 
  • Through Conduit Gate Valve: designed to minimize pressure drop and prevent turbulence in the flow. This type of valve is ideal for applications requiring free and continuous flow, ensuring optimal efficiency and reduced maintenance.

Gate valves operate through the linear movement of a shutter that rises and falls to open or close the fluid passage. 

Wedge gate valves, in particular, use two inclined seats and a slightly misaligned shutter. This design ensures a tight seal and high resistance to differential pressures. 

Gate valves are widely used in various industrial sectors, including: 

  • Packaging systems 
  • Water treatment plants 
  • Oil refineries
  • Chemical plants
  • Gas distribution systems
     

Their ability to intercept flow makes them essential for improving the efficiency and safety of industrial processes. 

MAGVALVES offers a wide range of gate valves to meet the specific needs of our customers. We have forged steel gate valves up to 2” and cast gate valves from 2” and beyond. 

Our experience and dedication to quality ensure that our valves provide excellent and long-lasting performance in any situation.
