Built for full-bore flow control in liquid piping systems, this valve uses a wedge gate mechanism to provide tight shutoff when closed and minimal flow restriction when fully open. The non-rising stem keeps the actuating assembly compact, making it well suited for installations where vertical clearance is limited. It is operated via an operating nut or hand wheel, giving field technicians two actuation options depending on the application. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this class of valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gate valve is intended for use in commercial and industrial piping systems where a full-port, bi-directional shutoff valve is required. Flanged connections make it appropriate for larger-diameter pipe runs where threaded or press-fit connections are not practical. Common installation environments include water distribution headers, mechanical room main shutoffs, fire protection supply lines, and municipal or process piping systems requiring periodic isolation capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch nominal bore for high-volume flow with minimal pressure drop when fully open\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlanged x flanged end connections for bolted, gasket-sealed installation in large pipe assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuctile iron body provides strength and impact resistance suited to commercial and industrial service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-rising stem design reduces vertical clearance requirements in confined mechanical spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both operating nut and hand wheel actuation for flexible field operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation gate valve for 8-inch flanged ductile iron piping systems in commercial and industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASME B16.1 or B16.42 flange standards as appropriate. Isolate and depressurize the piping system fully before removing any existing valve or fitting flanges. Verify gasket material compatibility with the conveyed fluid before torquing flange bolts. Do not use the valve for throttling service; gate valves are intended for fully open or fully closed positions only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flanged x Flanged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ductile Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Rising\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Operating Nut and Hand Wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9640FL8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67952080519474,"sku":"9640FL8","price":1467.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9c0b39545681d158fb7a02c1e976f97d_bbb4e618-7611-4b13-9ae8-bad144daa091.jpg?v=1791746080","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-9640fl8-gate-valve-8-inch-flanged","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
