About Gradual On/Off Valves
More
Threaded Gradual On/Off Valves
Also known as gate valves, these gradually open and close to prevent system damage from suddenly starting and stopping flow.
Wheel handles open and close with multiple turns, providing more controlled, shock-resistant flow than pull handles.
Nonrising stems stay in the same position whether the valve is open or closed. Valves with nonrising stems are often used underground and in low-clearance locations.
Rising stems lift as the valve opens and lower as the valve closes to provide a visual indication of whether flow is on or off. The stem is isolated from the process media for a longer service life than valves with a nonrising stem.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

Gradual On/Off Valves with Solder-Connect Fittings
- Valve Type: Gate
- For Use With: Water, Oil
- Specifications Met: MSS-SP-80
Solder these valves to copper tubing for a permanent, leak-tight connection. They gradually open and close with multiple turns of the wheel handle to prevent system damage from suddenly starting and stopping flow.
Nonrising stems stay in the same position whether the valve is open or closed. Valves with nonrising stems are often used underground and in other low-clearance locations.
Rising stems lift as the valve opens and lower as the valve closes to provide a visual indication of whether flow is on or off. The stem is isolated from the process media for a longer service life than valves with a nonrising stem.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
