Plug Valve
African Valve is the top Plug Valve Supplier in Egypt. It is a type of valve that uses a cylindrical or tapered plug with a through-hole to control the flow of fluid through the valve. Plug valves are commonly used for on/off and throttling applications in various industries due to their simple design, reliable performance, and ability to provide tight shut-off. They provide simple and efficient operation turning the handle or actuator by 90 degrees either opens or closes the valve completely. This valve is typically connected to a handle, wheel, or actuator that rotates the plug either perpendicular or parallel to the flow direction to open or close the valve. When the plug is aligned to the flow direction the fluids flow freely and when the passageway is moved out of alignment with the flow path by rotating the plug 90 degrees, it stops the flow and closes the valve, creating a tight seal against the seat and preventing leakage.
Plug valves are known for their simple and quick operation and ability to provide tight seals, used in a wide range of industries.
