Ductile Iron Sluice Gate Valves
A Ductile Iron Sluice Gate Valve is a heavy-duty valve used to control the flow of water or other fluids in pipelines. It is made from durable ductile iron, which is strong and resistant to damage, making it ideal for water systems, sewage treatment, and industrial pipelines. The valve opens or closes fully to start or stop the flow of fluid.
These valves provide excellent sealing capabilities, thanks to their precision-engineered gate mechanism and sealing rings, making them suitable for both low- and high-pressure applications. The ductile iron body gives the valve enhanced strength and toughness, ensuring it can handle significant pressure without cracking or breaking.
