Wafer Butterfly Valve

The wafer butterfly valve—also referred to as butterfly wafer type valve, with specialized configurations like butterfly valve wafer type gear operated for enhanced torque control—is a compact, lightweight valve designed for quick shut-off in piping systems. It features a disc that rotates 90 degrees to control flow, ideal for space-limited applications. Known for durability and cost-effectiveness, it suits various industries, including water treatment and HVAC.

What is Wafer butterfly Valve

The wafer butterfly valve—including high-corrosion-resistance variants like stainless steel wafer butterfly valve and categorized under the broader range of wafer and lug type valves—offers space-saving design, easy installation, and low maintenance. Its lightweight construction reduces costs, while the 90-degree operation ensures quick flow control. Durable materials provide excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for diverse applications, including water, air, and gas systems.

Materials for Wafer butterfly Valve

Valve body material: cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, etc.

Disc material: stainless steel, aluminum alloy, ductile iron, etc.

Seal material: EPDM, NBR, PTFE, Viton, etc.


Advantages of Wafer butterfly Valve

Compact structure, space saving:The wafer design of wafer and lugged butterfly valve (including wafer body butterfly valve and wafer end butterfly valve variants) makes the valve small and light, especially suitable for pipeline systems with limited space—quality options are available from wafer type butterfly valve manufacturers and trusted wafer butterfly valve supplier.

Easy installation:The wafer butterfly valve is clamped between the pipe flanges by bolts, without additional flanges, and is easy to install and disassemble.

Low cost:Simple structure, low material consumption, low manufacturing cost, and reduced installation and maintenance costs.

Flexible operation:The butterfly plate of wafer and lugged butterfly valve (such as wafer end butterfly valve) can be quickly opened and closed by rotating 90 degrees, which is simple to operate and suitable for occasions that require frequent switching, with quality products provided by wafer butterfly valve supplier and wafer type butterfly valve manufacturers.

Small flow resistance and good flow control:When fully open, the butterfly plate has little obstruction to the flow of the medium, low pressure loss, and is suitable for large flow applications.

Good sealing performance:Soft seals or metal seals are used, with excellent sealing performance, which can meet the needs of different media and working conditions.

Easy maintenance:Simple structure, few parts, easy maintenance and replacement of seals, and long service life.

Wide range of application:It can be used for water, air, gas, oil and corrosive media, and is widely used in water treatment, chemical industry, HVAC, food and other industries.

A variety of material options:The valve body, butterfly plate and sealing materials can be selected according to the characteristics of the medium to meet the needs of different working conditions.

Wafer butterfly valve is an ideal choice in pipeline system due to its compact design, low cost, easy operation and wide applicability.
