African Valve is the leading Lubricated plug valve supplier in South Africa. It is a type of industrial valve designed to control the flow of fluids within pipelines. The valve consists of a cylindrical or tapered plug that can be rotated within the valve body to control the flow of fluid through the valve. The plug of a lubricated plug valve is equipped with sealing surfaces that form a tight seal against the valve body when the valve is closed. The lubricant enhances the sealing effectiveness by filling in any gaps or irregularities between the sealing surfaces.
They are commonly used in various industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, and water treatment, due to their ability to handle high-pressure and high-temperature applications effectively.Discover top-quality Lubricated plug valve supplier in South Africa.
