Features
•tUnique Bestobell gate valve design featuring complete removal of the wedge
and body seat with the headworks (see opposite). This enables the removable
seat to have a lapped finish, instead of a standard machined finish, giving
superior shut off and greatly increased life of the PTFE wedge seal. The seat
itself can also be replaced, eliminating the need to cut out the valve body from
the line once seat damage has occurred, as required with all other gate valves
•tBestobell “Flexi-wedge” phosphor bronze disc with PTFE seal, mounted within
the stainless steel wedge, for tight shut off in cryogenic conditions despite the
thermal expansion and contraction
•tBolted bonnet design for easy removal of headworks even in confined spaces
