The purpose of a steel gate valve

2011-07-07

The purpose of a steel gate valve is to stop the flow
of liquid; usually in an emergency. You will find a steel gate valve
installed in many things. The most common is found on your outside water
spigot. You turn the knob to open a valve which allows water to flow
through the hose. You close it again to stop the flow. A steel gate
valve lowers a disc or plate which blocks the pipe which effectively
stops the flow of water or other liquids. It is important to keep these
valves maintained so that they do their job when needed. The following
article will share with you several tips on how to achieve this.
When you are dealing with a steel gate valve in the home you are dealing
with plumbing issues. Sometimes it becomes necessary to shut off the
water in the home during plumbing work or due to a broken pipe. Where
the steel gate valve is installed is actually a point of weakness as it
exists between two other pipes that screw into either end of the valve.
These areas are a point of weakness in case there is a blockage or
frozen pipe. To maintain this connection you should wrap the threads
with silicone plumber
