A 15mm Gate Valve is a manually operated valve designed to control the flow of water or other fluids in plumbing and heating systems. It features a rising or non-rising stem mechanism that lifts or lowers a gate inside the valve body to regulate fluid flow.
Key Features:
- Size: 15mm, suitable for small to medium plumbing applications
- Operation: Manual wheel handle for precise flow control
- Material: Typically made from brass or bronze for durability and corrosion resistance
- Connection Type: Usually comes with compression or threaded ends for secure installation
- Flow Control: Provides full bore flow with minimal pressure drop when fully open
- Application: Ideal for domestic plumbing, central heating systems, and low-pressure industrial applications
This type of valve is best suited for on/off control rather than throttling, as prolonged partial opening can cause wear on the internal components.
