FAQ

1. What is a manual gate valve?

A manual gate valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of fluids by lifting a gate out of the path of the fluid. It is operated manually, typically using a handwheel.

2. How do I know what size manual gate valve I need?

The size of the manual gate valve required depends on the pipe diameter and the specific flow requirements of your system. Consult with our technical team for assistance in selecting the appropriate size.

3. What materials are available for manual gate valves?

Our manual gate valves are available in various materials, including cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel, to suit different applications and environmental conditions.

4. Can manual gate valves be used for throttling flow?

While manual gate valves are designed primarily for on/off control, they can be used for throttling; however, this is not recommended due to the potential for seat damage and reduced lifespan.

5. What is the typical lifespan of a manual gate valve?

The lifespan of a manual gate valve can vary based on material, usage, and maintenance. Generally, they can last for many years, often exceeding 20 years with proper care.
