This 8-inch, Class 600, Buttweld (BW) End Gate Valve is engineered for permanent, leak-free installation in demanding high-pressure and high-temperature pipeline systems. Constructed from durable C12 (12% Chromium) alloy steel and manufactured to the stringent API 600 standard, it delivers exceptional performance, longevity, and reliability in the most challenging industrial
Bolted Bonnet with Spiral-Wound Gasket
Rising Stem, Outside Screw & Yoke (OS&Y) Design
High-Temperature Graphite-Based Packing System
Full Port Bore for Minimal Pressure Drop
Robust C12 Alloy Construction: The A217 WC6 (C12) material provides excellent resistance to creep, oxidation, and thermal fatigue at elevated temperatures (typically up to ~593°C / 1100°F), far exceeding the capabilities of standard carbon steel valves.
Superior Buttweld End Connection: The 8″ 600LB BW ends ensure a permanent, homogeneous, and leak-proof connection to the piping system. This design minimizes pressure drop, eliminates potential leak points associated with flanges, and is ideal for high-integrity, high-cycle, and critical service applications.
Full API 600 Compliance: Guarantees a heavy-duty design with proven dimensions, material integrity, and manufacturing quality, ensuring long-term reliability and interchangeability.
Optimized for Severe Service: The combination of C12 body, 600LB pressure rating, and welded construction makes this valve perfectly suited for high-energy systems where safety and durability are paramount.
Reliable Sealing: Flexible wedge design compensates for pipeline stresses and thermal expansion, maintaining a tight seal throughout its service life.
Power Generation: Main steam, reheat lines, high-pressure feedwater, and boiler vents/blowdowns.
Refinery & Petrochemical: High-temperature process lines, heat exchangers, transfer lines, and critical hydrocarbon services.
High-Pressure Utility Lines: For steam, oil, and gas where welded pipelines are standard.
