Description

A non rising stem socket end gate valve is an industrial valve used for reliable shutoff and flow control of liquids, gases, and
slurries- It consists of a stationary stem that does not rise or lower as the valve is operated. The stem is threaded and fitted
with a socket end connection, allowing it to be screwed into the valve body and enabling easy maintenance or stem
replacement.
As the handwheel on top of the valve is rotated, the gate (a solid wedge) moves up and down the stem, sealing against the
seats inside the body to shut off flow or retracting to allow flow. The gate has a sealing surface on the bottom and top to
provide bi-directional shutoff The non rising stem design allows the valve to be installed in confined spaces, as the stem does
not move up or dowm
This type of valve is made from sturdy materials like cast iron, carbon steel, or stainless steel to provide durability and
strength. The body is typically y-pattern or straight pattern. Socket end gate valves are available in a variety of sizes, pressure
classes, end connections, and actuation types to suit different industrial applications. Key benefits include tight shutoff, low
maintenance, long service life, and the ability to regulate and isolate flow precisely.JHY also offers regulating valves. Read
