Production introduction
Foinbo® Flanged OSY gate valve is a reliable and durable valve that is commonly used in water and gas pipelines. The term "OSY" refers to the outside screw and yoke design, which is known for its easy operation and maintenance. This type of gate valve features a rising stem that moves up and down as the valve opens and closes, allowing for clear visibility of the valve position.
The flanged connections make this valve easy to install and remove, and ductile iron body ensures durability and long service life. The valve is designed with a full bore and a non-rising stem, which makes it ideal for controlling flow in large pipes with high pressure.

FAQ
Q: OS&Y Gate valve function
A: The OS&Y gate valve functions to control fluid flow by raising or lowering a gate perpendicular to the flow direction, featuring an outside screw and yoke (OS&Y) mechanism for easy operation.
Q: How to turn off a gate valve?
A: To turn off a gate valve, simply turn the handle clockwise until it stops.
Q: How does a non rising stem gate valve work?
A: A non-rising stem gate valve works by the movement of a disc-shaped gate which goes up and down to control the flow of fluid. The gate is connected to a stem that moves the disc up and down. Unlike rising stem gate valves, the stem of a non-rising stem gate valve does not move up or down as the valve is opened or closed.
Q: How to replace a gate valve?
A: To replace it, first turn off the water supply and loosen the nuts on the valve. Remove the old valve and inspect the pipes for any damage. Install the new valve and tighten the nuts. Turn the water supply back on and test the valve to ensure it functions properly.
Q: OS&Y Gate Valve VS Gate Valve?
A: OS&Y gate valve and regular gate valve are both reliable choices for controlling the flow of fluids in various industrial settings. OS&Y gate valve is equipped with an outside screw and yoke mechanism, allowing for easy maintenance and repair. Regular gate valve, on the other hand, requires disassembly for maintenance. However, both valves are efficient and suitable for multiple applications.
