G 1-1/2'' Stainless Steel Gate Valve 16 bar

This G 1-1/2" BSP female gate valve provides reliable manual flow shut-off via a handwheel. The stainless steel 316 body with PTFE stem seal handles liquids, gases, air, heating and hydraulic oils, fuels, water, and chemicals. The full bore design ensures minimal pressure drop when fully open. Assembly uses only silicone-free seals and lubricants - safe for paint lines and silicone-sensitive processes. Rated to 16 bar at 20 °C, temperature range -20 to 200 °C (-4 to 392 °F). The pressure rating decreases at elevated temperatures.

Pros:

• Manually operated with ergonomic handwheel.
• Full bore design - minimal pressure drop and unrestricted flow when fully open.
• Stainless steel 316 body - corrosion resistant and suitable for aggressive media.
• Wide temperature range - rated from −20 to 200 °C for demanding process applications.
• Silicone-free assembly - safe for paint systems and silicone-sensitive processes.

Cons:

• Not suitable for flow regulation - use a globe or needle valve for precise control.
• Requires multiple turns to fully open or close - slower to operate than a ball valve.
