• Full bore/full flow design results in low friction loss and high flow capacity.
• Center pinch design for predictable linear flow performance, reduced turbulence and longer sleeve wear life.
• Short valve length accomodates tight installation requirements.
• One piece sleeve protects operating mechanism and body parts from exposure to process.
• High flexibility sleeve design reduces closing forces, improves recovery to full open position and ensures drip tight closure.
• Open body configuration allows easy visual evaluation of valve position, simplifies valve maintenance and sleeve replacement and lowers weight.
• Elastomer sleeve reduces piping vibration and water hammer.
• Low force manual handwheel actuation.
• Sleeve’s full face flanges provide a reliable seal when the valve is bolted up to a standard flat face flange

Options:

• Wide variety of natural rubber and synthetic rubber sleeve linings.
• Special sleeve designs include reduced bore, extra heavy linings and ultra flexibility.
• Pneumatic, electric and hydraulic actuators with a full range of control systems.
• Custom body and sleeve designs for special service applications.

Construction:

• Heavy-duty cast and fabricated steel bridge, pinch anvils, side plates and end flanges; assembled with high quality fasteners and premium screw-stock steel
  tie rods.
• One piece vulcanized pinch sleeve is reinforced with multiple layers of high tensile strength fabric cord. Includes steel reinforced stub ends; premium quality abrasion and/or corrosion resistant rubber lining on interior surface; ozone, oil and UV resistant outer cover.
• Double acting pinch mechanism with single input shaft.
• Cast iron or fabricated steel handwheel. Standard full circumference style on 1 inch through 3 inch sizes and exterior spoke assisted style on 4 inch through 8 inch sizes. A bevel gear with side mounted handwheel is supplied on 10 inch and above.
• End flanges are compliant with ANSI Class 125/150 lb. standards
