Forged Steel Check Valve
Product Catalouge
A forged steel check valve is a type of valve that allows flow in one direction while preventing backflow. It is made of forged steel, a type of metal that is heated and then hammered into shape, making it stronger and more durable than other types of steel.
The valve has a disc that moves up and down to allow or prevent flow. When the fluid flows in the desired direction, the disc lifts, allowing the fluid to pass through. However, the disc is forced down if the fluid tries to flow back, blocking the flow.
Forged steel check valves are commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, such as in the oil and gas industry, chemical plants, and power plants. They are also suitable for applications requiring a tight seal, as they have a tight shut-off capability.
Overall, forged steel check valves are a reliable and durable solution for preventing backflow in various industrial applications.
