Features
- All AVK gate series 03 valves meet or exceed the applicable requirements of AWWA C509
- Lead free
- Threads rolled in a separate cold pressing process to enhance strength
- Rolled threads ensure smooth thread edges and low operating torques
- Twice the yield strength required by AWWA eliminates bent and broken stems
- Packing gland bolts and bonnet bolts are stainless steel for corrosion resistance
- Bonnet bolts are countersunk and capped with hot melt to totally isolate the bolts from corrosive environments
- O-ring bonnet gasket wraps each bolt to prevent corrosion
- Bonnet blow offs due to bolt corrosion eliminated
- Ductile iron or bronze wedge fully encapsulated in EPDM rubber with an integral bronze stem nut for optimum corrosion protection and precision wedge tracking
- EPDM resists attack from chloramines

- Two o-ring stem seals to reduce friction and prevent wear and tear - replaceable under full pressure
- Third o-ring stem seal protects upper stem from impurities entering from the water way
