Gate Valve Screw End
What is a Gate Valve Screw End?
Gate Valve Screw End (SE) is a compact and threaded-end version of a gate valve designed for low- to medium-pressure applications. These valves are used to control or isolate the flow of liquids and gases by raising or lowering a gate within the valve body. Screw End Gate Valves are ideal for smaller pipelines where flanged or welded joints are not required, ensuring reliable sealing and easy maintenance.
Asiad Steel Industries manufactures and exports precision-engineered Gate Valve Screw End (SE) under the Racer brand, ensuring high durability, tight shutoff, and compliance with international quality standards.
