WKM Expanding Gate Valve

API 6A WKM Expanding Gate Valve and API 6A WKM Gate Valve are the professional valve types used in the oil and gas industry. The following is a detailed introduction about both valves:
1. API 6A WKM Expanding Gate Valve (Expansion-type gate valve)
Product features:
The valve is manufactured according to API 6A standards and consists of a gate body and associated gate sections.
The valve size range is usually from 2-1 / 16 “to 5-1 / 8” and working pressure ranges from 2000 psi to 5000 psi (there are also products with higher pressure range such as 2000 psi to 6500 psi or 10000 psi to 15000 psi).
With an upper / lower roller thrust bearing to minimize operating torque.
The seat can be lubricated by grease injection fittings to reduce wear and extend service life.
Non-lift rod design to minimize operating space.
application scenarios:
Mainly used in oil and natural gas exploitation and processing equipment, such as drilling fluid collector, throttle collector, well collector and tree.
2. API 6A WKM Gate Valve (Gate valve)
Product features:
Manufactured according to API 6A and other standards, after strict quality control and testing.
Suitable for working environment from atmospheric pressure to high pressure, with working pressure range up to 2000-20000 psi.
Suitable for crude oil and other media.
The valve structure has the horizontal type, which can be customized according to the specific requirements.
With a metal to metal sealing structure, can improve the sealing performance.
The stem and cap adopt rear seat seal structure to facilitate replacement of stem filler when pressure changes.
The valve body is made of high-quality alloy steel castings or forgings, which is safe and reliable.
The sealing surface has corrosion resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
application scenarios:
It is also widely used in oil and natural gas exploitation and processing equipment, and is one of the main components of oil tree, oil pipe head, casing head and collector pipe.
In addition, both valves usually offer a one-year warranty period and can be customized to customer needs. When purchasing, it is recommended to communicate with the supplier about the specific requirements of the valve size, working pressure and applicable medium in detail to ensure the selection of the most suitable product.
