Have you ever experienced any issues with any of your resilient wedge gate valves installed in a wastewater application?

Potable and non-potable water are fine applications for resilient wedge gate valves. However, installing them in wastewater pipelines presents a considerable challenge to the durability, functionality, and performance of the rubber wedge…..the rubber on the wedge will obviously deteriorate first!

At American R/D, we believe the solution is a metal-seated gate valve in wastewater applications. American R/D is a leading manufacturer of two types of AWWA metal-seated gate valves; the Solid Wedge (2”-96”) and the Rotating/Revolving Disc (3”-72”) respectively.

These proven gate valves can be manufactured in both NRS (non-rising) and OS&Y (Outside Stem & Yoke) configurations. These gate valves operate extremely well in harsh severe wastewater applications.

Each valve is manufactured out of “full-body” ASTM A536 ductile iron construction, furnished with higher strength stainless steel stems, and with a complete array of end connections to meet your next wastewater gate valve requirement.
