Pegler Gate Valves are reliable flow-control devices for plumbing/HVAC, made from brass (or iron for larger sizes), designed to fully stop or allow fluid flow (water, heating) with minimal restriction, featuring options like non-rising stems, threaded/flanged connections, and sometimes lock shields for service isolation, known for quality and integration with modern piping systems.
Key Characteristics
- Function: Shut off or allow straight-line flow in hot/cold water systems, heating, chilled water.
- Material: Primarily brass (models 1065, 1068) for smaller sizes, Ductile Iron (V950) for larger industrial sizes, offering durability.
- Design: Full-way (open flow), often with non-rising stems (stem stays inside) or lock shields (requires key for operation).
- Connections: Threaded (BSP/NPT) or flanged, suitable for various pipe types (copper, PEX, steel).
- Applications: Domestic & Commercial plumbing, HVAC, plant rooms, network isolation.
- Brand Reputation: Part of Aalberts IPS, known for quality, innovation, and integrated piping solutions (valves, fittings, pipes).
Common Models & Types
- Model 1065/1068: Brass, threaded, for general plumbing, hot/cold water.
- Model 1068LS: Forged brass, lock shield, for isolation.
- V950: Ductile Iron, flanged, for larger pipework.
In essence, Pegler gate valves are trusted, engineered components for precise flow control, balancing traditional reliability with modern building demands.
