A brass gate valve is typically used to control the flow of liquids and gases. It gets its name because it uses a wedge-shaped disc, the gate, to open or close off the inside passageway. The gate is moved up or down using a stem connected to an actuator on the valve body. When operated, 3/4 inch Brass Ball Valve create an effective seal that can withstand high pressures and temperatures. This makes them ideal for industrial applications where tight shutoff is necessary and corrosive materials are present. Brass gate valves have excellent strength properties and good corrosion resistance, which make them perfect for applications in various industries such as water treatment, chemical processing, oil & gas exploration, and maritime service installations, among others, due to their superior mechanical features like rust resistance and durability when exposed to harsh environments.
