Midland Industries 9610NYCF8 Gate Valve 8 Inch Flanged

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 9610NYCF8 is a resilient seated gate valve designed for demanding water and fluid control applications in municipal, commercial, and industrial piping systems. Built with an 8-inch nominal bore and flanged-by-flanged end connections, this valve handles working pressures up to 300 psi. The ductile iron body meets material standard A536 65-45-12, while the stainless steel stem and graphite packing provide corrosion resistance and long-term sealing integrity. An outside screw and yoke (OS and Y) design gives installers a visual indication of valve position and is a requirement in many fire suppression and backflow prevention assemblies.

This valve suits large-diameter underground and above-grade installations where flanged connections are specified. Common applications include municipal water mains, fire protection supply lines, industrial process piping, and large commercial mechanical rooms. The handwheel operator with a 14-inch diameter handwheel makes it practical for manual operation in tight or deep vault installations. Inlet-to-outlet face-to-face dimension is 11.5 inches, and the top-of-handwheel to inlet centerline height is 36.625 inches, which is critical for vault and pit clearance planning.

Key Features

• Resilient seat provides full-bore, drip-tight shutoff at rated pressure
• Outside screw and yoke (OS and Y) rising stem gives visual open/closed indication
• Ductile iron body conforming to material standard A536 65-45-12 for high tensile strength
• Stainless steel stem resists corrosion in wet service conditions
• Graphite packing maintains stem seal integrity over extended service cycles
• Flanged-by-flanged end connections for bolted installation to mating flanged piping
• 14-inch diameter handwheel for manual operation with adequate torque leverage

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flanged gate valve for 8-inch nominal diameter ductile iron piping systems using standard flange bolt patterns. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation of this valve should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local mechanical and plumbing codes and applicable AWWA standards. Depressurize and isolate the piping system fully before removing any existing valve or making flanged connections. Verify flange bolt-hole pattern and gasket specification match the mating flanges before installation. At 190.93 pounds, appropriate rigging and lifting equipment are required to safely handle and position this valve.
