Home >> Products >> Gate Valve >> Pressure Sealed-Wedge Gate Valve
Designed for high-pressure and high-temperature isolation, the Pressure Sealed-Wedge Gate Valve combines a pressure-assisted sealing system with a wedge gate configuration to provide secure shut-off in high-energy process lines. As line pressure increases, the internal pressure acts on the pressure-seal arrangement to enhance sealing force, while the wedge gate establishes firm contact with the valve seats for positive isolation. This construction is particularly advantageous where conventional bolted-bonnet designs face demanding pressure and temperature conditions.
The Pressure Sealed-Wedge Gate Valve is particularly suited for power generation, steam systems, oil & gas, petrochemical, refinery, and other high-energy applications. Its pressure-sealed bonnet, full-port flow passage, and durable wedge-and-seat arrangement provide an effective solution for main steam, boiler feedwater, superheated steam, and other critical process services.

Heavy-duty isolation valve providing full-bore flow with minimal pressure loss.
Pressure-Assisted Sealing
Internal line pressure reinforces the bonnet seal, providing increasing sealing force as system pressure rises.
Wedge Gate Configuration
The wedge establishes firm contact with the seats to provide positive isolation and dependable shut-off.
High-Pressure Capability
Pressure-seal construction is well suited to high-pressure applications where secure pressure containment is essential.
High-Temperature Performance
Suitable for elevated-temperature steam and process media with appropriately selected body, packing, and trim materials.
Full-Bore Flow Path
The gate retracts completely from the passage when open, allowing efficient flow with minimal pressure loss.
Reduced External Leakage Risk
The pressure-seal bonnet reduces reliance on conventional bonnet gaskets and supports improved pressure-boundary integrity.
Strong Pressure Boundary
The body and bonnet arrangement is engineered to withstand high mechanical and thermal loads encountered in high-energy systems.
Durable Seat & Gate Materials
Seat and gate surfaces can be selected or hardened to withstand erosion, temperature cycling, and demanding service conditions.
Low Flow Resistance
The unobstructed passage is advantageous for steam and process lines where maintaining system efficiency is important.
Suitable for Critical Steam Systems
Well suited to main steam, superheated steam, boiler feedwater, turbine systems, and other high-pressure power and process applications.

Gate valves provide full open or full close isolation with minimal pressure loss, making them ideal for pipelines requiring unrestricted flow.
Gate valves are designed for isolation rather than flow regulation. Operating them partially open may cause vibration, erosion, and premature seat damage.
Wedge gate valves are commonly used for general isolation, while expanding gate valves provide mechanical sealing and bidirectional zero leakage for critical pipeline services.
Q What bonnet types are available?
Gate valves are available with bolted bonnet, pressure-seal bonnet, and welded bonnet designs depending on operating pressure and temperature.
Q What materials are commonly used?
Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, duplex stainless steel, and other special alloys for severe-service conditions.
Q Which industries commonly use gate valves?
Gate valves are widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, power generation, pipeline transmission, water treatment, and mining.
