BENEFITS

Unibody design and rugged heavy duty construction ensures long valve life and greater reliabilityFlexible two-piece sleeve system allows valve to cycle in heavy slurries without stickingSleeves are easily replaced without disassembling the valveReplaceable upper seal design is not only packingless, which eliminates the need for periodic adjustment, it is also a self-lubricating system and is rechargeable without valve disassembly (sizes 2” through 16”)Full port design reduces pressure drop and turbulenceOpen bottom allows for the purging of large solids and solids in high concentrationBi-directional shutoffWafer style saves pipeline spaceSleeves are available in a variety of materials to handle abrasion and chemical applicationFlushing plate option allows for periodic cleaning of the lower discharge vent and allows flushing as neededEnclosed bronze bushing with a protected grease chamber means less operating force after long dormant periodsUpper stem protector and optional protective lower stem cover prevent external contamination.
