Slide Gate Valve

Slide gate valves are designed to shut off the flow of product from outlets of dry bulk storage bins, silos, conveyors and other discharge points. DCL’s slide gate valve frames are constructed from heavy duty 3/16 inch steel with a hardened Blanchard-ground blade which rides on cam rollers or solid guides.

Blade seals are selected according to the material being handled and are available to suit any application. A molded urethane inlet liner provides an ideal blade seal if you handle granular products. Additional frame seals are available and should be used if you handle fine dusty material. We also make adjustable seals, which prolong lifespan by reducing the need for seal replacement. These are adjusted from outside the valve frame, a feature unique to the industry.
