AAP Forged Steel Gate Valve, 1/2"

This AAP forged steel Class 800 gate valve has a forged ASTM A105 body, bonnet and wedge, a graphite gasket, an SS410 disc and female NPT threaded ends. It is supplied in 6 sizes from 1/2" (15mm) to 2" (50mm).

A forged steel Class 800 gate valve is a compact, heavy-duty wedge gate valve for small bore steam, oil and process lines. 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. The 13,800 kPa figure is the cold working pressure, so the allowable pressure falls as the temperature rises.
