How should the gasket be replaced for a gate valve?

2024-12-17

Ⅰ. Preparation before gasket replacement
Before replacing the gate valve gasket, the valve needs to be closed and the medium in the gate valve emptied. Then, remove the gate valve flange with a wrench, remove the valve for inspection and repair.

 

 

 

Ⅱ. The replacement steps of the gate valve gasket
1. After removing the valve, remove the original gasket with a tool, and clean the sealing surface of the valve and flange.
2. Place the new gasket on the flange, make sure the gasket is in complete contact with the flange.
3. Reinstall the valve and tighten the flange bolt with a wrench, being careful not to overtighten it to avoid the gasket breaking.
4. Open the valve and check if the valve is leaking. If there is a water leak, the valve needs to be disassembled, and the gasket needs to be checked and replaced.

 

 

 

Ⅲ. Precautions
1. When replacing the gasket, choose the same material and specifications as the original gasket.
2. When replacing the gasket, the tool and the operating environment should be kept clean to avoid dust and impurities contaminating the gasket and affecting the sealing effect.
3. When tightening the bolts, it is necessary to use even force and not too tight, otherwise the gasket is easy to break or be damaged.
4. After replacing the gasket, check whether the valve is running normally to avoid problems such as stuck valves and water leakage.
