FCT Non Rising Stem Gate Valve

FCT Non Rising Stem Gate Valve

FCT Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve – Full Isolation in Tight Spaces

FCT non-rising stem gate valves use a fixed stem that rotates to lift or lower the gate inside the valve body, making them suitable for installations where vertical space is restricted. Unlike rising stem valves, these require no overhead clearance and are easier to install in vaults, chambers, and underground lines.

The valve design provides full bore flow and tight shut-off, minimizing pressure loss and ensuring efficient fluid control. With durable construction and a corrosion-resistant stem, these valves offer long-term performance with minimal maintenance.
