WHAT IS A RUBBER LINED WAFER TYPE BUTTERFLY VALVE

A Rubber Lined Wafer Type Butterfly Valve is a flow control valve where the valve body is lined with high-quality rubber such as EPDM, NBR, Neoprene, or other elastomers. The rubber lining acts as the primary sealing element, ensuring bubble-tight shut-off and protection of the valve body from corrosion and erosion.

The wafer type design means the valve is installed between two pipe flanges and held in place by flange bolts. This design reduces weight, saves space, and lowers overall system cost compared to flanged valves. The disc rotates 90 degrees from fully open to fully closed position, allowing quick operation and minimal pressure drop.

CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

Body
The valve body is typically manufactured from Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, or Carbon Steel depending on application requirements. The internal surface is fully rubber lined to protect against corrosion and chemical attack.

Disc
The disc is generally made from Ductile Iron with Nickel Plating, Stainless Steel, or other suitable alloys. The disc design ensures smooth flow and reduced turbulence.

Stem
The stem is made from Stainless Steel to provide strength, corrosion resistance, and reliable torque transmission.

Seat and Lining
The rubber lining acts as the seat and sealing element. Common rubber materials include EPDM for water applications, NBR for oil and fuel, and Neoprene for general industrial use.
