The OS&Y Gate Valve, short for Outside Screw and Yoke Gate Valve, is a rising stem wedge gate valve commonly used for on/off control of fluid flow. As a critical component in industrial piping systems, the OS&Y gate valve is known for its durability, ease of maintenance, and highly visible operational status. These features make it especially suitable for demanding applications that involve high pressure, frequent operation, or require quick visual confirmation of the valve's position. As a result, OS&Y gate valves are widely used in industries such as water treatment, fire protection, and various industrial process systems.
In industrial piping systems, gate valves are a common choice for controlling fluid flow. Selecting the right valve size isn’t just about system compatibility—it also affects long-term performance and cost-efficiency. In this article, we’ll walk through some practical guidelines to help you make smart decisions when choosing gate valve sizes.

Gate valves are critical components in pipeline systems. Improper installation or inadequate maintenance leading to valve failure may result in severe damage and costly repairs. Since most gate valves are installed in buried services or underground applications, failures caused by installation errors or poor maintenance often require extensive and expensive excavation operations for effective correction. Therefore, it is essential for users to understand proper gate valve installation procedures.
