Plug Valve is a quarter-turn valve used to control the flow of fluids in piping systems by rotating a cylindrical or tapered plug with a through-passage. This design allows for fast and efficient on/off control, making it ideal for oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, water treatment, HVAC, and industrial applications. The simplicity of the plug mechanism ensures tight shut-off, minimal leakage, and reliable performance, even under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
Plug valves are available in lubricated, non-lubricated, and lined variants to handle a wide range of fluids, including gases, liquids, slurries, and corrosive media. Constructed from robust materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and PTFE-lined options, plug valves provide excellent resistance to wear, corrosion, and environmental factors.
