Gate Valves
- Description: Gate valves use a flat or wedge-shaped gate that moves up and down to open or close the flow path. When fully open, they provide minimal flow resistance, ensuring a full, unobstructed flow.
- Function: Primarily used for isolating sections of a pipeline, gate valves are ideal where infrequent operation is required.
- Applications: Commonly found in water distribution networks, oil and gas pipelines, and high-temperature steam systems.
