TC Butterfly Valves
What are TC Butterfly Valves?
TC Butterfly Valves (Tri-Clamp Butterfly Valves) are sanitary flow control valves designed for hygienic fluid handling in industries such as food & beverage, dairy, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. They use a centrally mounted disc to regulate flow, offering quick shut-off and throttling functions with minimal fluid retention.
Asiad Steel Industries is a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-performance TC Butterfly Valves, built to meet global sanitary standards and customized to suit a wide range of flow control applications.
