The stem axis of the stop valve is perpendicular to the sealing surface of the valve seat. The relatively short opening or closing stroke of the valve stem and its reliable cut-off action make the valve very suitable for medium cut-off or adjustment and throttling.
Once the valve disc of the stop valve is in the open state, the contact between the valve seat and the sealing surface of the valve disc will be no longer, and it has a very reliable cut-off action, so this kind of valve is very suitable for medium cutting or regulating and throttling.
Once the stop valve is in the open state, there will be no contact between the valve seat and the sealing surface of the valve disc, so the mechanical wear of the sealing surface is small. Because most of the valve seats and the valve disc are easy to repair or replace, it is not necessary to remove the whole valve from the pipeline when the sealing elements are replaced, which is very suitable for the occasions where the valve and the pipeline are welded together. When the medium passes through this kind of valve, the flow direction changes, so the flow resistance of the stop valve is higher than that of other valves.
