Cast & Ductile Iron Gate Valves

 Cast and ductile iron gate valves are essential components in fluid control systems, each with unique advantages. Cast iron is cost-effective for moderate applications, while ductile iron offers enhanced strength and versatility for more demanding environments. Selecting the right type depends on the specific requirements of the application.

Cast Iron Gate Valves

Cast iron gate valves offer minimal pressure drops and are recommended for applications that require positive shut off.

Key Features

• Material: Made from cast iron, which is known for its excellent castability and strength.
• Design: Features a wedge-shaped gate that provides a tight seal when closed.
• Temperature and Pressure: Suitable for moderate pressure and temperature applications.

Ductile Iron Gate Valves

Key Features

• Material: Made from ductile iron, which has improved tensile strength and ductility compared to cast iron.
• Design: Similar to cast iron valves with a wedge gate mechanism.
• Temperature and Pressure: Can handle higher pressures and temperatures than cast iron.
