| • Disc casting is spherically machined and hand polished to provide a bubble tight shut-off, with minimum torque and an extended seat cycle life. • Patented "Spirolox®" retaining ring and stem retaining C-rings provide a blow-out proof stem on S31H. • Unique "tongue and groove" seat design, bonded to the body by aerospace adhesive, is designed to seal with slip-on or weld-neck flanges. Seat totally encases the valve interior to isolate the line media from the body. • Molded seat O-ring provides seal between valve and pipe flanges. Flange gaskets should not be used with this valve. • Primary and secondary seals are interference fits between seat and disc hub, and stem and seat stem hole respectively. • Non corrosive, heavy duty acetal bushing absorbs side thrusts on S31H, bronze bearing on S36H. • Stem packing gland on S31H is a self-adjusting double "U" cup design and gives positive sealing in both directions, preventing external substances from entering the stem bore. The S36H has an adjustable packing gland. • Mounting flange meets ISO 5211 and allows direct mounting of Bray manual operators. |
