Various Types of Plug Valves and Their Uses

Image
  A plug valve is a cylinder or cone-shaped valve that may be rotated inside the valve body to regulate fluid flow. One or more hollow passages are typically installed horizontally in plug valves to facilitate easy flow through the valve while it is open. The two-port plug valve is a highly popular valve having an open as well as a closed state. The valve's two ports are generally on opposing sides, with one passageway running from inbound to outbound and the stem and handle on top. A quarter-turn valve is also used in a plug valve, which is beneficial when rapid and frequent action is required. Flanged, hub type, or butt weld valve ends are all options.   Ablaze Lining ranks among the reputed manufacturers of Plug Valve in Gandhinagar. Types of Plug Valve and Applications: Although there are plenty of varieties of plug valves, there are four main types, each with its own set of advantages. 1.    Lubricated Plug Valve: A lubricated valve, as the name impl...

Why to use products made from PTFE material?

Types of Metallic Expansion Joints & their Uses

Image
  What are Bellows Metallic Expansion Joints? Standard bellows have a wide range of engineering applications. Bellows metallic expansion joints are used to compensate for pipe system motions in a variety of industrial piping applications. The bellows metallic joints keep vibrations, expansions, and other variations from harming long-distance pipes. This article was penned by Ablaze Lining - a popular High Pressure Bellow manufacturer in India explains the many types of bellows metallic expansion joints and their applications. Custom Expansion Joints: Metallic expansion joints are elastic vessels that may be compressed or expanded under pressure or in a vacuum. If the bellow's material is not stressed beyond its yield strength, the release of the vacuum or pressure causes the metallic bellow to revert to its original shape. There are four types of metallic expansion joints, which are classified according to the manufacturing technology, utilised. 1.    Convolute...

Types of Butterfly Valves Commonly Used in India

Image
  A butterfly valve is a type of valve that controls or isolates the flow of a fluid. The closing mechanism is a rotating disc.   A butterfly valve is a member of the quarter-turn valve family. When the disc is turned a quarter turn, the valve is fully open or closed. The "butterfly" is a metal disc that is attached to a rod. When the valve is closed, the disc rotates to entirely block the route.   When the valve is fully open, the disc is turned a quarter turn, allowing nearly unfettered fluid circulation. To throttle flow, the valve can also be opened progressively.   Ablaze lining is the most popular Butterfly Valve distributor in Gujarat .   There are various types of butterfly valves, each designed for certain pressure and application. The pressure rating of the zero-offset butterfly valve, which exploits the flexibility of rubber, is the lowest. The high-performance double offset butterfly valve, which is utilised in somewhat higher-pressur...

Different Types of Piping Options Available in the Market

Image
  Types of Plastic Piping Options: 1.    Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): PVC, an abbreviation for polyvinyl chloride, is a form of plastic typically used for main supply lines, drainage pipes, pools, spas, and irrigation infrastructure. PVC pipes are available in a variety of thicknesses known as schedules. PVC schedules 40 and 80 are the most frequent. The thicker the walls, the higher the schedule. The most prevalent PVC kind is Schedule 40. Schedule 80 PVC is thicker and tougher, allowing it to withstand higher pressures.   PVC does not rust or corrode over time, which is one of its many advantages. It is also reasonably priced and simple to fix or replace.   PVC is a great option for: ●      Sink, toilet, and bathtub drain lines ●      Vent stacks ●      Main water supply line ●      High-pressure applications   Ablaze Lining is one of the most popular supp...

Common Types & Uses of Reducing Flanges

Image
  What is a Reducing Flange? When there is a change in pipe size, reducing flanges are used. The dominant flange (dimensions) corresponds to the larger pipe size (NPT), but has a smaller diameter to correspond to the smaller pipe size (NPT). These flanges are often available in blind, slip-on, threaded, and weld neck configurations.   They are available in all pressure classes and are an excellent choice for joining two different sizes of pipe. This style of flange should not be utilised where a rapid change, such as at a pump, might cause undesirable turbulence.   Ablaze Lining is one of the leading Lined Reducing Flange manufacturers in Vadodara. Uses of Reducing Flanges: ■      In pipe-to-pipe connections, reducing flanges are employed. ■      Reducing flanges are easier to install than non-reducing flanges. ■      When you need to connect different sized flanges, they are the best choice. ...

Metal Bellows - Types & Applications

Image
  Metal bellows are at the heart of precision bellows technology in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Rubber and plastic bellows are used in less demanding applications. These items bear little similarity to the classic leather bellows used in forges and fireplaces.   Metal bellows are elastic vessels that can be compressed or stretched when pressure is applied to the outside of the vessel. If the pressure or vacuum is removed, the bellows will return to their former shape, as long as the material has not been stretched beyond their yield strength. They are employed for their capacity to deform under pressure as well as for providing a hermetic seal that allows movement.   Ablaze Lining is the leading manufacturer and supplier of High Pressure Bellows in Vadodara, Gujarat. Types of Metal Bellows: Formed bellows are made by reworking tubes, which are generally made by deep drawing, using a number of procedures such as cold forming (rolling) and hydrofor...
