Over the past year, KDV Flow’s commitment to supporting local businesses in the UK has blossomed, particularly with our high-performance plug valves. A prime example is our partnership with a local reseller, where our Alloy 20 PTFE sleeved plug valves have proven a resounding success.
PTFE Sleeved Plug Valves: The Perfect Pairing of Durability and Precision
These valves offer the ideal blend of robustness and accuracy, making them the go-to choice for demanding applications. The PTFE sleeve boasts exceptional chemical resistance and low friction, while the Alloy 20 construction ensures unwavering performance even in the most corrosive environments.
At KDV Flow, we recognise that not every application necessitates exotic materials like PTFE. That’s why we offer a wide range of rubber-lined valves for less demanding environments, ensuring our customers always have access to the most suitable valve for their specific requirements.
FAQ:Plug Valves
- What are plug valves used for? Plug valves are primarily used for on/off flow control and throttling in various industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment. They excel in handling corrosive and abrasive media.
- Why use a plug valve instead of a ball valve? Plug valves offer better throttling control than ball valves, making them suitable for applications requiring precise flow regulation. They also tend to be more compact and cost-effective than ball valves of comparable size.
- What is the difference between a plug valve and a butterfly valve? Plug valves offer a tighter seal and better throttling control than butterfly valves. However, butterfly valves are generally lighter and less expensive, making them suitable for larger pipe sizes.
- What is the difference between a plug valve and an eccentric plug valve? Eccentric plug valves provide a tighter seal and better wear characteristics due to their off-center plug design, which reduces friction during operation.
