Gate valve Sourcing 4113-032 — standard flow, flanged ends, metal gate

Sourcing gate valve 4113-032 is a standard-flow shut-off valve with a metal gate closure and flanged end connections for secure pipeline mounting. Designed for reliable on/off control, this valve is intended for general industrial and plumbing applications and is suitable for water and non-corrosive liquids where compatibility with valve materials is met. The flanged ends allow easy integration into existing pipe systems and provide a robust mechanical connection for medium-pressure networks.

Advantages

The metal gate provides positive shut-off and low flow resistance when fully open, while the flanged ends ensure stable and leak-minimized pipeline attachment. The straightforward rising or non-rising stem operation (depending on installation) and simple mechanical design support easy maintenance and long service intervals. Its standard-flow profile balances throughput and sealing performance for common industrial and building services tasks.

Suitable for

• Shut-off duties in water distribution and plumbing systems
• General process lines carrying non-corrosive liquids
• Piping networks requiring flanged connections for disassembly or inspection
• Industrial and commercial facilities needing straightforward on/off control

Key specifications

• Valve type: metal gate shut-off valve with flanged ends
• Flow characteristic: standard (full bore when open with moderate resistance)
• Connection type: flanged ends for bolted pipeline connection
• Typical media: water and non-corrosive liquids compatible with metal components
• Application class: general industrial and plumbing use

How to use

Install the valve between matching flanges on a straight section of pipeline, ensuring correct alignment and gasket selection for the intended media and pressure. Tighten flange bolts in a cross pattern to achieve even compression. Operate the gate by turning the handwheel or actuator clockwise to close and counterclockwise to open, observing torque limits if an actuator is fitted. Regularly inspect for leaks at flange joints and stem packing and perform periodic lubrication or packing replacement as recommended by system maintenance procedures.

Usage recommendations

Select compatible gasket materials and flange ratings to match the valve’s pressure and temperature limits. Avoid using the valve for throttling service; gate valves are intended for on/off operation. Schedule routine inspections of flange bolting and stem packing to maintain sealing integrity and extend service life.
