OMB® 810 Forged Carbon Steel OSY Gate Valve, Socket Weld, Class 800

Gate valves are bidirectional valves ideally suited for on/off duties. OMB produces various types both with parallel face gates or with wedge gates. These valves have a very low resistance to flow, which in the case of parallel gate valves approaches that of a straight pipe. They are used for duties with high pressure fluids due to the fact that upstream pressure helps the sealing between gate and seat.
