Forged Steel Gate Valve
Forged Steel Gate Valve – Superior Grain Structure for High Pressure/Temperature Service
Forged Steel Gate Valves utilize forged body construction where controlled hot working refines grain structure and eliminates casting porosity, achieving superior mechanical properties essential for Class 600-2500 high-pressure and high-temperature applications. The forging process aligns metal grain flow with stress patterns, dramatically improving strength, fatigue resistance, and thermal shock performance versus cast equivalents in demanding African industrial services.
Dominating compact high-pressure applications across African thermal power plants, chemical processing facilities, and oil & gas operations, forged steel gate valves serve DN 15 to DN 100 (1/2″ to 4″) applications in Class 600-2500 ratings. The compact, high-strength construction suits confined installation spaces while meeting API 602 specifications for small-bore petroleum service requiring temperatures to 538°C (1000°F) and pressures exceeding 420 bar (6000 psi). See our parent Gate Valve category for broader context.
