Mud Valves

This design of valve is unique to the drilling business where high pressure abrasive water or oil based slurry type drilling fluids are encountered.
The basic concept of the flat slab gate is well tried and tested and has been used in the drilling industry for many years.

In order to combat the arduous conditions encountered both internally and environmentally, valves have been designed around the following criteria:

• Minimum resistance to flow.
• Quick and easy to operate.
• Robust and compact.
• Ease of maintenance.
• Abrasive resistant parts.
