Product details

The item in the image is a 3/4" Stainless Steel Gate Valve with a manual red handwheel.🔍 Technical Markings Breakdown3/4: Denotes the inner pipe connection size (3/4-inch).200: Indicates a 200 WOG pressure rating, making it safe for Water, Oil, and Gas up to 200 PSI.CF8M: Confirms the valve body is cast from durable 316 Stainless Steel, offering high corrosion and rust resistance.⚙️ How It WorksUnlike the previous check valves which operate automatically, this is a manually operated valve. Turning the red handwheel raises or lowers an internal wedge (the gate) straight up and down across the path of the fluid.💡 Application NotesOn/Off Service Only: It is designed to be either fully open or fully closed.No Throttling: It should not be used to regulate or restrict flow volume, as keeping the gate partially open will cause rapid wear and severe valve damage from fluid erosion.Straight Flow: When fully open, it creates an unobstructed straight path, resulting in minimal pressure drop across the line.Would you like to know the differences between this gate valve and a standard ball valve for isolating flow, or do you need help matching it to specific threaded pipe ends?
