What is a Gate valve?

A gate valve is primarily used to fully open or close the flow of fluid. It works by using a gate (sliding plate) that controls the flow. When opened, the fluid passes through completely, and when closed, it blocks the flow. Gate valves are typically used when fine flow control is not required and only an on/off operation is needed. They are commonly found in piping systems, oil and gas installations, and water supply systems. The valve is simple to operate, and when fully open, it offers minimal resistance to flow, allowing fluid to pass efficiently.

Application of Gate valve

✅ Water supply systems
Gate valves are used to fully control the flow of water in pipelines.
✅ Oil refining plants
Gate valves are installed to control the on/off flow of high-volume liquids.
✅ Power plant cooling systems
Gate valves are used to shut off the flow of coolant water.
