Knife Gates

Knife Gates metal seated knife gate valves are designed for tough slurry applications – particularly suited to large sizes and high pressures.

The poly lined valves have all the advantages of being robust and rugged but are optimised for the small sizes and lower pressures where tight shut off is required.

Heavy Duty Design:

The heavy-duty one-piece body ensures that the valve resists pipe expansion and pipe misalignment – fewer pipe supports needed.

An extra thick heavy-duty gate extends the valve’s life and is less vulnerable to slurry hammer. The gate is precision ground so a good gland seal is obtained and the gate doesn’t need to be manually scrubbed after the valve has been operated.

The robust pedestal is laser cut for uncompromising support of the actuator & gate even at awkward angles and large enough that the maintenance crew have adequate access to tightening the gland. Instrumentation mounting points are standard.
