Cast Iron Gate Valve

Updated: Mar 11, 2023

A Cast iron gate valve is a gate valve whose body and bonnet are made of cast iron material. Cast iron gate valves have been in use for hundreds of years. Cast iron gate valve has excellent resistance to temperature since it can withstand high temperatures of around 1150 oC. Cast iron gate valves also have high strength which makes them work at high pressure applications. However, the strength of the cast-iron gate valve will depend on the class of cast iron. Some cast-iron gate valves can withstand high pressures of around 500 psi. Cast iron gate valve as the name suggests, uses a gate to control fluid flow. Cast iron gate valves use the gate valve to either open or close fluid flow. These valves are bi-directional. The fluid flow and the gate in cast iron gate valves are perpendicular to each other. As such, the fluid flows in a straight line without taking direction in the cast iron gate valve which helps to reduce pressure loss. Cast iron gate valves have low fluid resistance as they are designed to enhance laminar flow (smooth flow/flow without turbulence). Cast iron gate valves are resistant to corrosion which makes them be used even in corrosive applications. These valves have high resistance to pressure and temperature. However, cast iron gate valves have a low resistance to impact damage since the material used to make them (cast iron) is of low ductility.
