They also offer an advanced line of highly competitive ball valves available in floating or trunnion mounted and in a variety of types and sizes. Their valves are manufactured for a broad range of applications which includes the oil and gas industry, chemical and petrochemical, mining, pulp and paper, construction, power generation, ship-building and a host of other industries.
GLT Valves entire product are manufactured with the use of high quality materials and advanced manufacturing technology which ensures the highest possible product quality at a competitive price.
"The company growth is a testimony to our commitment to product quality and our customers, and we take great pride in the status our valves have won from our list of customers," claim the firm. Their acapabilities include:
Gate valves
Gate valves are primarily used for stop valves fully opened or fully closed and are not normally considered for throttling purposes, but more for slurries, viscous fluids, etc. Gate valves are characterized by a traveling wedge that travels perpendicular to the direction of flow. Gate valves usually have a minimum pressure drop when fully open, provide tight shut-off when fully closed, and remain relatively free of contamination buildup.
Globe valves
Globe Valves are primarily used as control valves where moderate control or regulation of flow is required. Globe valves are marked with flow direction arrows as they are recommended to be installed with flow and pressure under the disc. The amount of force to close a globe valve against pressure is much higher than gate valves but the distance the stem travels is much less.
Check Valves
GLT Check Valves are available in 2 types : Swing Check Valves and Wafer Check Valves available in a range of sizes and pressures. Check Valves are single-direction flow valves used to allow unlimited flow in one direction and to restrain flow in the opposite direction. Check Valves are normally designed for installation in horizontal lines but may also be used in vertical lines where the flow is upward under the disc.
Ball Valves
Ball valves can be used to handle a variety of liquids, suspended solids and gases in many type of industry. Ball valves are suited for fluid flow requiring assured performance, tight shutoff, constant torque and no maintenance.
