What is gate valves

Válvulas de compuerta are essential for ensuring precise and reliable flow control in industrial processes.
Thanks to their solid structure and efficient design, these valves offer excellent performance in a wide range of applications.

Types of gate valves

• Forged Gate Valves: made with advanced forging techniques that provide them with exceptional strength and durability. Ideal for high-pressure applications and extreme temperatures, these valves are designed to last over time and offer reliable performance even in the most challenging conditions.
• Knife Gate Valve
• Has a sharp-edged, rectangular gate that cuts through viscous or fibrous media.
• Suitable for slurries, pulp, or wastewater in mining, paper, and chemical industries.
• Slab Gate Valve
• Uses a flat, slab-like gate that slides against the body seats, often with a floating design.
• Common in oil and gas pipelines for handling dirty or abrasive fluids with low maintenance.
• Cryogenic Gate Valve
• Built with extended bonnets and low-temperature materials to handle extreme cold.
• Essential in LNG, liquid nitrogen, and other cryogenic fluid systems.
