Product Details
Product Description
- 316 stainless steel bonnet bolts will never come in contact with water or soil and are 100% protected against corrosion
- Unique gasket has round inserts for bolts, which are countersunk into the tapped valve body and capped with hot-melt
- 400 series stainless steel is AVK's standard stem material, providing twice the yield strength required by AWWA; potential for bent and broken stem is eliminated
- Threads are cold-rolled, work-hardening the steel, and ensuring smooth thread edges for low operating torque
- Unique wiper-ring protects stem from contact with soil and water
- Standard EPDM wedge is taste and odor free, stands up to chlorine and other disinfectants
- Wedge nut is fully encapsulated in the wedge, resulting in efficient mechanical motion and 10X the open/close operations vs competitors; provides higher torque resistance and prevents rubber wear and leakage
- Every AVK valve has a unique serial number engraved on the stem - also shown on the valve label; serial number provides complete traceability to the date the valve was built, and every operation performed throughout the manufacturing process
- AVK is the only gate valve and fire hydrant manufacturer in the USA with a quality assurance program that requires serializing every product for traceability
- Unique tapped lug and set screw provide a metal-to-metal termination point for cathodic corrosion protection
