Product Details
Sluice Valve (Gate Valve) Description:
A Sluice Valve, commonly referred to as a Gate Valve, is an isolation valve used to start or stop the flow of fluid in a pipeline. It operates by raising or lowering a gate (wedge) inside the valve body to control fluid passage. When fully open, the gate is completely drawn up into the bonnet, allowing an unobstructed flow path with minimal pressure drop. When closed, the gate seats tightly against the body to ensure a leak-proof seal.
