FORGED STEEL, ALLOY AND STAINLESS STEEL WALWORTH® offers this product line manufactured in accordance with ANSI Classes 800, 1500 and 2500 and sizes from 1/4" to 2" for socket weld, threaded and combined ends. Available also Integral Flanges in 150, 300, 600 and 1500 either Raised Face or ring type joint ends. WALWORTH® keeps a large quantity of these valves in stock in the most common trims used by the industry. For Certain Customer applications where forged material is not available (specifically for high nickel alloys), WALWORTH® has developed this product line but produced from sand casting. In order to keep the same quality level as forged, these castings are produced with 10% of each lot to be subject to X-ray examination.
Forged Steel Gate ValvesThe Gate Valve is used when the need exist for a device that allows an interruption or cut off the flow of a fluid. Is not recommendable to use Gate Valves for flow modulation as the high velocity of the through may result in erosive damage to the wedge and seats when the valve is partially opened. Under normal operating conditions, the valve should remain either fully open or fully closed. Installation of a Gate Valve is independent of the flow direction.
Forged Steel Globe ValvesThe Globe Valves are primarily used to modulate or regulate the volume of the flow. A Globe Valve is not recommended when a continuous full flow of fluid is required due to the high pressure drop inherent to the design of a Globe Valve. This type of valve should always be installed so the flow intake enters through the base of the valve seat. The valve has an arrow stamped on the body to indicate the preferred direction on flow. Globe Valves may be used with fluids containing particles in suspension.
Forged Steel "Y" Globe ValvesThe "Y" Pattern Globe Valves are primarly used to modulate or regulate the volume of the flow when a minor flow is required. A "Y" Pattern Globe Valve is recommended when a continuous full flow of fluid is required due to the highest CV against a "T" Pattern Globe valve. Also suitable to solve some troubles in the field when space limit the usage of standard "T" Pattern Globe valve. This type of valve should always be installed so the flow intake enters through the base of the valve seat. The valve has an arrow stamped on the body to indicatethe preferred direction on flow. Globe Valves may be used with fluids containing particles in suspension.
Forged Steel Swing Check ValvesCheck valves are generally used to protect pumps or similar equipment, allowing the flow only in one direction and preventing flow reversal due to back pressure. The swing type check valves are designed to produce a low pressure drop in the pipeline. This design provides a tight seal as well as a fast reaction to the closure.
Forged Steel Piston Check ValvesPiston Check valves are generally used to protect pumps or similar equipment, allowing the flow only in one direction and preventing flow reversal due to back pressure. The piston check valves are designed with globe valve bodies, producing an increased drop pressure in the pipeline. This design provides a tighht seal as well as a fast reaction to the closure impulse. Metal seated check valves may not provide drop tight sealing when used in gas system or fluid system with low back flow pressure or fluids contaning particles.
Forged Steel "Y" Piston Check Valves"Y" Pattern Piston Check valves are generally used to protect pumps or similar equipment, allowing the flow only in one direction and preventing flow reversal due to back pressure. Also is used when a laminar flow and increased CV is desired. This design provides a tighht seal as well as a fast reaction to the closure impulse. Metal seated check valves may not provide drop tight sealing when used in gas system or fluid system with low back flow pressure or fluids contaning particles.
Forged Steel Ball CheckBall check valves are generally used to protect pumps or similar equipment, allowing the flow only in one direction and preventing flow reversal due to the back pressure. The ball check valve can be used for a high viscosity fluid. The arrow stamped on the valves should match direction of the flow. The sealing ability of check valves depends on the pressure of the back flow and the viscosity of the fluid.
