Soft seated gate valves are made of ductile iron GGG40 or GGG50, with the same flat bottom design as the water pipe, making it less likely for debris to accumulate and for the pipe to flow freely. The wedge is covered with EPDM, which is not easy to fall off and has good elastic memory. The surface is coated with epoxy powder coating, which is non-toxic and suitable for drinking water.

The gate valve is internally threaded, the stem is made of AISI 420, the wedge is vulcanized with EPDM and the body has a sliding guide. The soft seated gate valve is full bore with no pressure drop, the wedge is covered by EPDM and is not affected by corrosion and does not require any maintenance. The O-ring on the stem can be replaced in the pipeline and in the fully open position if required.

The ductile iron soft seated gate valve can be installed above or below ground, or indoors. This manual gate valve is actuated by a flanged handwheel.
