Lined Valve Company launched a new knife gate valve designed specifically for the coal and mining market. The valves incorporate high-chrome iron inserts for longer working life in these harsh and abrasive applications.
Jeff Bowman, general manager and vice president of Lined Valve Company clarified, “This robust urethane lined valve features a one-piece, molded-in-place full body liner and integral 650 Brinell hardness high-chrome iron inserts. This valve is a great addition to the wide range of knife gates we offer, now adding the specific needs of bottom ash and mining tailings.”
With a heavy-duty cast iron body and yoke, and a stainless steel gate and stem, the Figure 75 provides corrosion resistance and durability. The superior packing arrangement provides improved sealing performance in high cycle applications, and a full packing seal around the gate reduces the potential for packing leakage. The Figure 75 is built to MSS SP-81 certification and is available in standard sizes 2″–24″ with custom sizes available for manufacture in the Woodland, Washington, factory.
