Legend Non-rising Stem Flanged Cast Iron Gate Valve
Legend Non-Rising Stem Flanged Cast Iron Gate Valve
The Legend Non-Rising Stem Flanged Cast Iron Gate Valve is engineered for dependable shut-off in municipal, commercial, and industrial piping systems. Designed for full open or full closed operation, this valve delivers unobstructed flow with minimal pressure drop when fully open. Its non-rising stem configuration makes it an excellent choice for installations where vertical space is limited, such as underground lines, vaults, and confined mechanical rooms.
Compact Non-Rising Stem Design
Space-Saving Operation
Unlike rising stem valves, the non-rising stem design keeps the stem stationary while the internal gate moves up and down. This allows for installation in tight or below-grade environments without requiring additional overhead clearance.
Protected Stem Threads
The stem threads are located inside the valve body, protecting them from external contaminants, dirt, and corrosion. This design enhances durability and ensures smoother operation over time in demanding conditions.
Flanged Cast Iron Construction
Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Body
Constructed from high-strength cast iron, Legend flanged gate valves provide excellent structural integrity for large-scale piping systems. This rugged construction is ideal for handling high flow volumes in water distribution and industrial applications.
Secure Flanged Connections
Flanged ends allow for a strong, leak-resistant connection to piping systems. This design simplifies installation and maintenance, especially in systems requiring periodic inspection or servicing.
Performance and Applications
Full Port Flow Efficiency
The valve’s full port design ensures maximum flow capacity when open, reducing turbulence and pressure loss. This improves overall system efficiency and performance.
