Walworth
Globe Valves - Overview
Walworth
Cast Steel Globe and Angle Valves have the same
sturdy characteristics as Walworth Gate Valves,
such as sure-grip handwheels, long threaded
yokenuts, deep stuffing boxes, extra strong
and tight bonnet joints, excellent guiding of
discs above the seat for minimum restriction
of flow, extra smooth seating surfaces for ease
of tight seating, best selection of trim materials
for varied services, etc.
Walworth
Cast Steel Globe and Angle Valves can be supplied
with V-port, parabolic, or semi-parabolic discs
for special flow characteristics.
Where
globe and angle valves in Class 300 and higher
are regularly furnished with spur or bevel gearing,
it will be of the enclosed type mounted, unless
otherwise specified, with the handwheel shaft
on the left side of the valve when facing the
end port that leads from above the disc seat.
When specified, these valves can be furnished
without gearing.
