Knife Gate Valve (Wafer / Lug, Ductile Iron & SS)

Knife gate valve · DI / SS body · wafer or lug · UAE stock

A knife gate valve uses a sharp-edged stainless steel gate to cut through thick media and seal across the bore. Its slim wafer or lug body handles slurries, sludge, powders and wastewater that would clog a standard gate valve.

Overview

Knife gate valves for slurry, sludge and wastewater in the UAE

A knife gate valve isolates by driving a thin, bevelled stainless steel gate straight across the pipe bore. The sharp lower edge shears through fibres, solids and settled slurry, and the gate seats against a resilient or metal seal in the body. Because there is no cavity at the bottom of the body for solids to pack into, the valve keeps closing reliably on media that would jam a wedge gate valve. The body is very short, similar to a wafer butterfly valve.

Hamza Fasteners supplies knife gate valves from DN50 to DN300 with ductile iron or stainless bodies, SS 304 or SS 316 gates, EPDM, NBR or metal seats and handwheel, gear or pneumatic operation. They are used in sewage treatment plants, pumping stations, concrete and aggregate plants, mining, pulp and food waste. Tell our Dubai team the media, pressure and flange standard for a quotation.

FAQ

Common questions

When should I use a knife gate valve instead of a gate valve?
Use a knife gate wherever the media contains solids, fibres or slurry. A wedge gate valve has a seat pocket at the bottom that fills with solids and stops it closing, while a knife gate cuts through and seals across the bore.
What is MSS SP-81?
MSS SP-81 is the Manufacturers Standardization Society standard for stainless steel, bonnetless, flanged knife gate valves. It covers design, materials, face-to-face and testing for the most common pattern. Valves built to it share common face-to-face lengths, so they can be swapped between makers.
Are knife gate valves bi-directional?
Many standard knife gates seal in one direction only and must be fitted with pressure on the seat side. Bi-directional designs are available where flow or pressure can come from either side, so tell us your operating case.
Do you supply the full size range?
Yes, we supply DN50 to DN300 in wafer and lug patterns, with larger sizes and actuated versions on request. Pneumatic actuators with solenoid valves can be quoted for automated plants. Contractors often order a mix of sizes in one go, which we can pack by line item.
How much does a knife gate valve cost in Dubai?
Price depends on size, materials, seat, operator and quantity. Send the details on WhatsApp and we will quote. Include the solids content and flange drilling in your enquiry. We also quote by email if you prefer to send a formal enquiry.
Do you deliver knife gate valves across the GCC and Africa?
Yes. We deliver to UAE sites and ship to the GCC and Africa, with delivery time confirmed at quotation. Larger valves are palletised and crated for safe shipping. We keep you updated with dispatch details once the order leaves the store.
