2022年9月8日 · Gate valves have a ridge or wedge that slides into place to block the fluid flow, while angle valves have a disc that rotates to block fluid flow. Gate valves are typically used for thicker or more viscous fluids, while angle valves are better for thinner or less viscous liquids.

2024年6月26日 · Angle valves and gate valves differ significantly in design and application. Angle valves, featuring a 90-degree turn, are ideal for thinner liquids and gases, offering cost-effective and space-saving solutions. Gate valves, linear in design, handle thicker fluids and provide durable, robust options for larger pipes.

Gate valves are essential for high-flow applications that require efficient shutoff capabilities when fully open or fully closed, making them ideal for use in the oil and gas industry, water management systems, and chemical processing plants. Angle valves work well in limited space applications.

Gate valves (also known as knife valves or slide valves) are linear motion valves in which a flat closure element slides into the flow stream to provide shut-off. They are one of the most common valves used.

The NIBCO® bronze angle valve is recommended for service in commercial and industrial applications, including hot and cold water, HVAC, steam, compressed air, gas and other general utility services. Please refer to NIBCO technical data sheets, chemical resistance guides and catalogs for engineering and installation information.
