Among various types of valves, the gate valve is the most widely used one. It is generally only suitable for fully open and fully closed, cannot be used for adjustment and throttling.

Wedge gate valves are generally used in occasions where there are no strict requirements on the external dimensions of the valve, and the operating conditions are relatively harsh. Such as high temperature and high pressure working medium, the closing parts are required to ensure long-term sealing, etc.

Generally, it is recommended to use wedge gate valve on high pressure, high pressure cut-off (large pressure difference), low pressure cut-off (small pressure difference), low noise, cavitation and vaporization, high temperature medium, and low temperature (cryogenic) when using conditions or requiring reliable sealing performance. Such as power industry, petroleum refining, petrochemical, offshore oil, water engineering and sewage treatment engineering in urban construction, chemical industry and other fields are widely used.
