Knife Gate Valves
Knife Gate Valves
Kent Valve manufactures uni-directional and bidirectional knife gate valves in a wide range of different models and different sizes using high-grade CI/WCB/SS304 and SS316. Knife gate valves are cast to suite every specific application and are honoured as the finest ones and have become an obvious choice in the user industries. Our Knife Edge Gate Valves are one of the specific designs to ensure minimum contact between the parts of the valve to reduce wear and tear. The batten edge of the gate (Knife-Edge) allows a tight shut off even when solid particles settle at the bottom of the body. A wide variety of hardened trim options are available on the gate, seat, and wear ring for long life. Kent Knife Gate valves provide dependability in a wide range of demanding applications, including corrosive and abrasive environments, as well as key aspects such as operating load. All these factors are considered in design and construction to ensure a long and maintenance-free life . A knife gate valve is simple to use and requires no maintenance. They have a longer life and are used for stopping and controlling the flow of abrasive slurries.
