BODY & BONNET
The design of the body and bonnet is calculated to achieve the most regular distribution of stress in all directions, as well as the minimum turbulence and resistance to flow. Valve bonnets are equipped with a backseat bushing. The yoke is integrally cast on Pressure Classes 150 and 300 up to 12” and up to 10” on Class 600 and higher ratings.

GATE
All gates are fully guided to the seats. As standard our valves are supplied with a solid flexible gate that has a tapered H cross-section. The flexible wedge is cast or machined with a circumferential groove to allow the seating surfaces to move independently and adjust to movement of the body seats. This design is beneficial where line loads or thermal expansion of the system is likely to distort the seat face in the valve. This design of gate is ideally suited for steam or other high temperature services and is especially useful to prevent sticking where valves are closed when hot and opened when cold.

SEAT RING
Seat rings are designed to greatly reduce and/or prevent any turbulence and avoid damages due to the corrosion. The seat rings are forged or rolled in one piece, and then seal welded and overlaid, if required. After welding and all required heat treating, the seat ring faces are machined, thoroughly cleaned and inspected before leaving for assembly.

STEM
The stem connection to the gate is a T-head design which is integral (without welding) with the stem. The accuracy in the dimensions and finishes assure a long life with a perfect tightness in the packing area, resulting in lower fugitive emissions. The stem-to-gate connection is designed to
prevent the turning or the disengagement of stem from the wedge while the valve is in service. Through calculations and extreme testing, the strength of the stem-to-gate connection has proven to exceed the strength of the stem at the root of its operating thread.
