Knife Gate Valves

Features
GA Valves can offer a range of resilient seated uni & bi-directional wafer style pattern knife gate valves with non-rising spindle to provide a tight shut-off on an extensive range of slurries from heavy sludge to clean fluids. The blade has a round bottom and chamfered knife-edge to cut the demanding product media. An internal and external powder coated blue paint finish for the valve body is used as a rust preventative. The gland packing can be replaced without removing the valve from the pipeline.

Suitable for:
