Design & Construction

Engineered to BS 1873, in every detail.

Cast, machined and assembled to a controlled specification, from the one-piece OS&Y bonnet and fully-guided disc to the hardfaced seats and fully-encased gasket.

01Body

Designed to BS 1873

Cast with uniform wall thickness, smooth flowing contours and generous fillet radii to prevent stress concentrations. Designed for structural stability, mechanical strength and safe weldability. Precision machined.

02Bonnet

One-piece OS&Y bonnet

Cast steel OS&Y type. The one-piece design aligns the stem accurately, eliminating excessive weight and unnecessary working parts. Every bonnet carries a stainless-steel bushing that guides the stem and backseats the valve when wide open under pressure.

03Disc

Efficient disc guiding

The fully-guided disc ensures no chatter on the seat face during closure and eliminates undue side thrust on the stem.

04Seats

CA15 / Stellite-faced seats

Hardfaced with CA15 / Stellite for longer seat life. Suitable for steam, oil and gas at higher temperatures. Seating faces are ground and lapped.

05Stem

Heat-treated 13% Cr stem

Heat-treated 13% Cr stainless steel with a precision square thread. A self-adjusting radial backseating shoulder engages the backseat in the bonnet. A ground, mirror-like finish gives long packing life, low friction and no leakage.

06Body–bonnet joint

Fully-encased gasket

The gasketed joint is critical: its compression is better controlled in a fully enclosed cavity, giving a strong, leak-proof body-to-bonnet joint.

07Stuffing box

Deep stuffing box

On every valve the stuffing box is deep, finished to a high quality and holds high-pressure or high-temperature packing rings for tightness and long packing life. Asbestos-free graphoil packing is available.

08Ends

Flange facing

Flanges on Class 150 and Class 300 valves have a 1/16″ raised face with a serrated finish.
