6 inch Pressure Sealed Bonnet Gate Valve in CF8M and Class 1500LB

Nominal Size of 6 Inch Gate Valve

As the name implies, the 6 inch gate valve has a diameter of 6 inches. According to international standards, 1 inch is equal to 25.4 mm, so 6 inches is approximately equal to 152.4 mm. However, in actual valve products, we usually use the nominal diameter (DN) to indicate the size of the valve. The nominal diameter of a 6-inch valve is generally 150 mm. Our gate valve design standards include API 600 and API 6D. Please consult us for specific size information and gate valve prices. NSW Valve company will provide valve quotes and valve drawings free of charge.

Nominal Pressure of 6 Inch Gate Valve

In addition to the diameter and outer diameter, the pressure bearing capacity of the valve is also an important factor to consider when selecting. The maximum pressure bearing capacity of a 6-inch valve is generally below 2,500 pounds, which means that under normal working conditions, the maximum pressure that the valve can withstand should not exceed this limit. Otherwise, safety issues such as valve damage or leakage may occur.
The nominal pressures of gate valves produced by NSW Valve Company are Class 150LB, Class 300LB, Class 600LB, Class 1500LB, Class 2500LB, and we can also customize other pressures.

Material of 6 Inch Gate Valve

Common materials of gate valves are carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex stainless steel, aluminum bronze and other special alloy steels.

Application of 6 Inch Gate Valve

6 inch gate valves are widely used in various industrial pipeline systems to control the flow of fluids. Due to their moderate caliber and pressure resistance, 6-inch valves are suitable for general fluid media such as water, steam, oil, and can also be used for some corrosive or high-temperature and high-pressure special media. When selecting, the appropriate valve type and material should be selected according to the actual use conditions and medium characteristics.

Gate Valve Selection suggestions

When selecting a 6 inch gate valve, in addition to considering basic dimensional parameters such as caliber, outer diameter and pressure resistance, you should also pay attention to factors such as the valve’s structural type, sealing performance, operation method, and manufacturer. High-quality valve products not only have good performance and service life, but also provide stable and reliable guarantees for industrial production. Therefore, it is recommended that when choosing valves, give priority to well-known brands and manufacturers with a good reputation.
