Knife gate valves are particularly useful for handling slurry, as well as viscous, corrosive, and abrasive media. The valves are inexpensive, easy to use, light in weight, and have a low pressure drop in the completely open position.

Uses of knife gate valve:
• Knife gate valves are made to work in the harshest environments, with a sharpened blade to cut through heavy liquids.
• They are particularly useful in wastewater applications where corrosion is a major concern. So, in addition to the valve design optimised for slurry media, it is advantageous to have a knife made of acid-proof stainless steel because it is less susceptible to corrosion damage and thus requires less frequent maintenance or even replacement.
• Knife gate valves should be used only for applications that require a completely open or completely closed position and should not be used to regulate flow unless they are specifically designed for it.

Types of Knife Gate Valve:
• Through conduit knife gate valve
• Hopper shape knife gate valve
• Rising stem knife gate valve
• Non-Rising stem knife gate valve
