TIANYU GB/API Standard Cast Steel/Stainless Steel Flanged Slab Gate Valves: Multi-Standard Solutions for Industrial Fluid Control

I. Product Overview

TIANYU GB/API standard flanged slab gate valves are engineered for industrial fluid systems, constructed from cast steel (WCB/WCA) or stainless steel (304/316), compatible with GB/T 12234, API 6D, and other international/domestic standards. The valves achieve fluid shut-off via a slab gate lifting mechanism, with a straight-through flow path minimizing pressure loss, suitable for high-pressure applications involving oil, natural gas, water, and other media. Ranging from DN32 to DN800 (1-1/4″ to 32″) in nominal diameter and PN1.6 to 16.0MPa (Class150 to 400LB) in pressure rating, they meet rigorous demands in chemical, energy, municipal, and other sectors.
