Product Details

OVERVIEW

The Rising Stem Gate Valve features external threads positioned outside the valve body, causing the stem to rise visibly as the valve opens. This design allows operators to instantly determine the valve's open or closed position by observing the amount of stem exposed — a key safety and operational advantage in industrial environments.

Available from 2" to 20" in Class 125–150, these valves offer easy operation, small fluid resistance, and full bore flow. Designed to MSS-SP-128 and NACE MR0175 standards, they are certified to CE/PED, ISO, ATEX, SIL, and Fire Safe requirements for use in oil and gas, power generation, and other demanding services.
