These Resilient Seat Rising Stem Gate Valves BS 5163 are engineered to deliver reliable, bubble-tight shut-off and long service life in essential water and fire safety applications. As a benchmark of quality and compliance, this valve design is defined by its adherence to the stringent British Standard 5163, ensuring:

• BS 5163 Certification: Guarantees conformity to a globally recognized standard for design, materials, pressure/temperature ratings, and performance testing. This provides specifiers and operators with unmatched confidence in product reliability and safety.

• Bubble-Tight Resilient Seat: Features a non-metallic (typically EPDM or NBR) seal vulcanized to the wedge. This ensures zero leakage in both directions, low operating torque, and superior sealing performance compared to traditional metal-seated gate valves, even in debris-prone water lines.

• Clear Rising Stem (OS & Y): The Outside Stem & Yoke design provides an instant visual indicator of valve position (open or closed), a critical safety feature for fire protection systems and isolation points. The stem threads are external to the flow path, protecting them from corrosion and wear.

• Ductile Iron or Cast Iron Construction: Offers robust strength and durability. The internal and external epoxy coatings (often certified for potable water contact) provide excellent corrosion resistance for underground or surface installation.

• Full-Bore Design: Minimizes pressure loss when fully open, making it ideal for fire fighting systems where flow capacity is paramount and for general water distribution networks.

Key Benefits:

BS 5163 Certified & Compliant | Bubble-Tight Bi-Directional Seal | Visual Position Indication (OS&Y) | Corrosion-Resistant Construction | Low Operating Torque | Full Bore Flow | Fire-Safe Design | WRAS Certified Options Available.

Ideal For:

Potable Water Distribution Networks, Underground Fire Hydrant Lines, Above-Ground Fire Sprinkler Systems (as an isolation valve), Pumping Stations, and Industrial Water Services where certified performance and reliability are non-negotiable.
