Technical Insights: Gate Valves for Water Systems

Gate valves are widely used in municipal and industrial water systems to provide reliable on/off control. Their simple structure and low flow resistance make them ideal for pipelines requiring full shut-off and minimal leakage.

Key Technical Advantages

• Excellent sealing performance for water distribution networks
• Low fluid resistance with full-bore design
• Durable materials ensure long-term service life
• Compliant with ASME B16.10 and API 598 testing standards

Why Gate Valves are Preferred in Water Systems

Water utilities and industrial users rely on gate valves for stable operation in both municipal pipelines and treatment plants. Their robust design and cost-effective maintenance make them a preferred choice for water system engineers.
