Specification
High Quality Manual Flat Carbon Steel Hard Seal Gate Valve
I. Product Overview
NEWWAY manual flat gate valves are designed for precise flow control in industrial pipelines, adhering to GB/T 12234 standards. Featuring a flat gate design and flange connection, these valves are crafted from high-quality carbon steel (WCB) or stainless steel (304/316), offering reliable shut-off capabilities for various media, including water, steam, oil, and gas. With nominal diameters ranging from DN50 to DN600 and pressure ratings up to PN16, these valves are suitable for diverse applications in chemical, petroleum, power generation, and water treatment industries.

Product Overview
III. Design Features & Advantages
Flat Gate Structure
Full-bore design minimizes flow resistance (Cv value up to 30% higher than conventional gate valves)
Parallel seat design ensures bidirectional sealing with zero leakage
Anti-friction graphite coating reduces operating torque by 25%
Robust Sealing System
Metal-to-metal sealing with STL alloy overlay on seats (hardness ≥HRC45)
Secondary soft seal (NBR/PTFE) provides redundant sealing under low pressure
Stem sealing with V-ring packing, tested to 10,000 cycles without leakage
Reliable Stem Design
Non-rising stem with trapezoidal thread (ACME thread form)
Thrust bearing reduces friction during operation
Anti-blowout stem design ensures safety under high pressure
IV. Manufacturing Process & Quality Control
Precision Casting
Investment casting for complex components with dimensional accuracy ≤±0.5mm
Ultrasonic testing (UT) and magnetic particle inspection (MPI) for defect detection
Heat treatment (normalizing/tempering) to enhance material properties
Advanced Machining
CNC machining centers ensure surface roughness Ra≤3.2μm
Seat sealing surface ground to flatness ≤0.02mm
Stem thread pitch accuracy ≤±0.01mm
Stringent Testing
Hydrostatic test: 1.5x working pressure for shell, 1.1x for sealing (30-minute hold time)
Gas tightness test with nitrogen at 0.6MPa
Low-temperature test (-46°C) for cryogenic applications
