This class 800 Forged carbon steel Gate Valve for heavy duty use is appropriate for the most challenging process apps. When the media is goes through it, minimum quantity of turbulence will flow and the pressure drop is very low. That’s why this gate valve is used in sectors where viscous fluid and fluid separation is needed. The forged valve class 800 is designed for API602 and has an elevated stem outer screw and yolk. Dedicated for both flow directions isolation. Why use these gate valves? They are great for process liquids in pipelines. These forged gate valves provide a favorable tight shutdown both in horizontal or vertical situation. They also offer a small amount of control and are used to throttle steam, gas or liquids. Easy to operate and the preferred choice over ball valves by engineers to isolate trapping stations. Forged steel gate valve is a kind of gate valve whose parts are made of forging material. The gate of the forged steel gate valve moves along the vertical direction of the centre line of the passage. It is mainly used for shut-off function in the pipeline. Forged steel gate valve is a widely used valve. It is generally used for the shut-off device with size?2”.

Advantages of Forged Steel Gate Valves

1.  The fluid resistance of the forging steel gate valve is small, and the sealing surface is less brushed and eroded by the medium.
2. Forged steel gate valves are suitable for small diameter lines with Class150 ? 2500, the operating temperature of -29 ~ 425?(carbon steel) or -29 ~ 500degrees C(stainless steel) for shut-off or switching on the medium in the pipeline.
3. Butt-welded forged steel gate valve is simple in shape, short in the face to face dimension, easy for manufacturing and widely used.
4. The gate is placed vertically in the valve body, and valve flap of the globe valve is placed horizontally in the valve body, so the length of the structure is shorter than the globe valve.
5. The internal media channel of the valve body of the forging steel gate valve is straight through, and the medium does not change its flow direction when it flows through the gate valve, so the fluid resistance is small.
6. The medium flow direction of socket welded forged steel gate valve is not restricted, without disturbing the flow and reducing the pressure. The sealing performance is very good, and the sealing surface is less eroded when fully opened.
