About Gradual On/Off Valves

High-Pressure Threaded Gradual On/Off Valves
Designed for use in refineries and other demanding environments, these valves have a durable body that can withstand nearly twice the pressure of other gradual on/off valves. Also known as gate valves, they gradually open and close with multiple turns of the wheel handle to prevent system damage from suddenly starting and stopping flow.
These valves have a rising stem that lifts the handle as the valve opens and lowers as the valve closes. At a glance, you can see if flow is open or closed. The stem is isolated from what's flowing through your line, giving these valves a longer lifespan than valves with a nonrising stem. Their flanged stem housing, also known as a bolted bonnet, bolts in place to make them easy to take apart for maintenance and repairs. However, the flanged stem housing makes these valves heavier and larger than valves with threaded or welded stem housings.
Full-port valves do not restrict flow. Standard-port valves slightly restrict flow.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

High-Pressure Socket-Connect Gradual On/Off Valves
With a forged steel body and bolted construction, these valves can withstand nearly 10 times the pressure of other socket-connect gradual valves. Insert unthreaded pipe into the socket ends and weld to create a permanent, leak-tight connection. Also known as gate valves, they gradually open and close with multiple turns of the wheel handle to prevent system damage from suddenly starting and stopping flow.
The handle raises as these valves open and lowers as they close to let you know if flow is on or off. The stem also raises when on so it doesn’t contact what’s flowing through your line. This gives these valves a longer lifespan than valves with a nonrising stem. Also known as bolted bonnets, their flanged stem housing bolts in place for easy disassembly during maintenance. However, the housing makes them larger and heavier than valves with a threaded or welded housing.
Full-port valves don’t restrict flow.
Standard-port valves slightly restrict flow.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
