Parallel double disc gate valve: Complete Technical Guide

Introduction

The Parallel Double Disc Gate Valve is a high-precision industrial valve designed for on/off flow control in medium- and high-pressure pipeline systems. Unlike conventional wedge gate valves, this design uses two parallel discs with a spring or wedge mechanism, ensuring uniform sealing on both sides of the seat. This feature provides excellent tightness, low torque operation, and extended service life.

It is widely used in power plants, water supply networks, oil and gas pipelines, and petrochemical systems, where safety, durability, and minimal leakage are critical.

This guide covers accessory explanations, maintenance frequency, after-sales service, and upgrade options, giving customers a professional reference for installation, operation, and long-term performance optimization.


Product Accessories

Every Parallel Double Disc Gate Valve is built with multiple precision-engineered components. Understanding these accessories helps in maintenance, repair, and upgrades.

AccessoryDescriptionFunction
Valve BodyCast steel, ductile iron, or alloy constructionProvides structural strength and withstands pressure
Parallel Double DiscsTwo flat gate discsEnsure double-sided sealing for tight shut-off
Seat RingsHardened metal or resilient materialProvide sealing surfaces against gate discs
Spring/Wedge MechanismInstalled between discsMaintains uniform pressure against seats
StemRising or non-rising typeTransfers motion from actuator/handwheel to discs
BonnetBolted or pressure-sealedProtects stem and internal components
Gland PackingGraphite, PTFE, or compositePrevents leakage along the stem
Handwheel / ActuatorManual, electric, or pneumaticProvides valve operation and control
Fasteners & GasketsBolts, nuts, sealing ringsEnsure leak-free connections

Key Highlights
