Duplex Steel Knife Gate Valve

When your industrial fluid system handles highly corrosive, abrasive, or viscous media, you need valves that deliver both durability and reliable shut-off. Designed for harsh chemical, saline, and slurry environments, our duplex steel knife gate valves provide long-lasting performance and operational reliability.

TOT duplex steel knife gate valves feature a blade-shaped gate that moves perpendicular to the flow, engineered to control challenging media such as slurries, corrosive liquids, powders, and wastewater.

Duplex steel knife gate valves are defined by their sharp, blade-like gate capable of cutting through tough materials, ensuring tight shut-off even in the most demanding conditions.

Made from high-performance duplex stainless steel (2205/2507), these valves offer superior corrosion resistance, high strength, and excellent durability — ideal for aggressive chemical or saline media.

Full Duplex Steel Body & Gate: Every wetted and structural component is duplex steel, guaranteeing corrosion-proof performance.

Customizable for Your Flow System: Face-to-face dimensions, flanges, actuators — fully adapted to your project specifications.

Factory-Tested Before Delivery: Every valve undergoes hydrostatic and seat testing to ensure compliance with international standards.

API 6D, CE, and ISO Certified Manufacturing: Confidence backed by global-quality compliance and professional engineering.

Kind Tips: If your priority is high corrosion resistance, high strength, and handling abrasive or saline media — duplex steel is your top-performing choice.

Why Choose Duplex Steel Knife Gate Valves?

In environments where standard valves fail due to corrosion or clogging, duplex steel knife gate valves provide:

  • Superior Corrosion Resistance: Handles aggressive chemicals, seawater, and saline slurries.

  • High Strength & Reliability: Resists deformation under high pressure or abrasive media.

  • Low Maintenance: Self-cleaning gate design and durable construction reduce downtime.

  • Tough Media Handling: Slurries, powders, viscous fluids, and fibrous materials are easily cut and sealed.


How Our Duplex Steel Knife Gate Valves Are Built for Performance

  1. Full Bore Flow: Unobstructed port ensures smooth media flow with minimal pressure drop.

  2. Razor-Sharp Shut-Off: Blade gate slices through heavy or fibrous media for tight sealing.

  3. Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Entire valve body and gate made of duplex steel — no rust, no flaking.

  4. Multiple Actuation Options:

    • Manual (Handwheel / Chainwheel)

    • Pneumatic Cylinder

    • Electric Actuator

  5. Resilient & Metal Seat Options: Bubble-tight EPDM/PTFE or rugged metal seats.

  6. Zero Leakage to Atmosphere: Gland packing, O-rings, and scraper rings ensure full sealing.


Available Sizes & Pressure Ratings

  • Size Range: DN50–DN1200 (2″–48″)

  • Pressure Class: PN10 / ANSI 150 / custom available

  • Temperature Range: Up to 250°C depending on seat and packing


Applications You Can Trust It In

  • Chemical Processing: Handles aggressive media and corrosive fluids.

  • Seawater & Desalination: Excellent resistance to chloride-induced corrosion.

  • Pulp & Paper: Cuts fibrous slurry efficiently.

  • Wastewater Treatment: Handles sludge and debris.

  • Mining & Minerals: Resists abrasive slurries.

  • Power Plants: Controls ash and chemical-laden fluids.


Optional Features for Enhanced Performance

  • Purge Ports: Flush sticky media

  • Position Indicator: Remote operation feedback

  • Extended Stem / Gearbox: For deep or remote installations

  • Dust Covers & Scrapers: Prevent buildup on stem and sealing surfaces

FAQ-Duplex Steel Knife Gate Valve

What is a Duplex Steel Knife Gate Valve?

A valve designed to handle aggressive, corrosive, or abrasive fluids. It features a blade-shaped gate for reliable shut-off and is made of high-strength duplex stainless steel.

What types of media can it handle?

Slurries, powders, viscous fluids, fibrous materials, chemical and saline media.

How does it work?

The blade moves perpendicular to the flow, cutting through media for full bore flow and tight shut-off.

Can it be automated?

Yes — manual, pneumatic, and electric actuators are all available.

How do I choose the right duplex steel knife gate valve?

Select based on media type, pressure, temperature, and corrosion level. Our team can provide customized recommendations.

What maintenance is required?

Minimal; routine inspection and cleaning of the gate and seat are recommended.
