Choke Valves
Choke valves are designed to control flow rates and pressures in high-pressure piping systems, providing precise regulation in demanding environments.
Available in cast and forged steel, choke valves are critical in oil and gas production, wellhead control, and processing facilities, ensuring safe and efficient flow management.
Choke valves regulate fluid flow by adjusting the size of the flow passage, reducing pressure and controlling flow rates in high-pressure systems. They are commonly used in oil and gas wellheads, production manifolds, and processing plants. Cast steel choke valves are suited for larger, high-pressure applications, while forged steel variants are ideal for smaller, high-integrity systems. Their robust construction and advanced materials ensure reliability in harsh conditions, with connection options tailored to diverse industrial needs.
Choke valves are manufactured to meet stringent industry standards, ensuring performance and compatibility in critical systems.
