Plug Valve
Plug Valve
African Valve is a trusted Plug Valve Supplier in Nigeria, offering robust and compact valves used for quick on-off and throttling applications in various industrial pipelines. Designed with a cylindrical or tapered plug that rotates inside the valve body to control flow, these valves offer tight shut-off and minimal pressure drop.
Function & Working
Plug valves operate by rotating a tapered or cylindrical plug with a bore through it. When aligned with the pipeline, fluid flows through the bore; rotating the plug 90 degrees blocks the flow. The simplicity of design ensures fast operation, reduced torque requirements, and reliable sealing.
