The AVK PN16 Gate Valve (Black/blue SDR11 PE100 pipe ends, post indicator plate, DN80-300) is designed with built-in safety in every detail. The wedge is fully vulcanized with AVK’s own drinking water approved EPDM rubber compound. It features an outstanding durability due to the ability of the rubber to regain its original shape, the double bonding vulcanization process and the sturdy wedge design. The triple safety stem sealing system, the high strength stem and the thorough corrosion protection safeguard the unmatched reliability.

- A standard PE pipe is pressed onto the grooved valve end, locked with a steel ring and sealed with a plastic shrink hose. The boltless, full bore PE end connection is tensile resistant and stronger than the PE pipe itself. The PE pipe end enablesdirect welding into PE pipes resulting in a fast and secure assembly.
Note: The maximum working temperature of 20°C is set according to the ISO9080 lifetime requirements for PE pipes. For higher working temperatures expect a reduction of the PE pipe’s lifetime. Please refer to the local pipe manufacturer for further information
