Gate Valve

API 6D Gate Valve

The API 6D Gate Valve is a gate valve configuration defined by API 6D. It is intended for industrial buyers evaluating valve options for gate valve service, process plants, utilities and project piping. Final selection should follow the project datasheet, pressure-temperature conditions, materials and required inspection scope.
