AAP Cast Iron Gate Valve, 2"

This AAP non-rising stem cast iron gate valve has a cast iron body, bonnet and wedge, a brass stem and flanges to AS 2129 Table E. It is supplied in 9 sizes from 2" (50mm) to 12" (300mm).

A wedge gate valve moves a wedge-shaped gate between two body seats using a spindle, so when it is fully open the fluid has a straight, uninterrupted passage with very little pressure drop. It is not recommended for flow regulation and should only be used fully open or fully closed. On a non-rising stem valve the stem turns without lifting, so it suits places where there is little headroom, and the valve needs a separate way of showing its position. The wedge is a solid wedge disc. The maximum temperature is 100°C and the cold working pressure is 1,379 kPa (13.79 bar), with flanges to AS 2129 Table E. The body, bonnet and wedge are cast iron with cast bronze seat and wedge face rings, a brass stem, Teflon packing and a full face nitrile body gasket.

Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Choose the size to match your Table E flanges, and check the hole count against your mating flange, because it differs between Table D and Table E.
