API 600 Wedged Gate Valve 12 Inch 300 LB WC6

Summary

API 600 Wedged Gate Valve 12 Inch 300 LB WC6 is designed for isolation in oil and gas, power generation and industrial process piping. gate construction is aimed at on/off isolation with low pressure drop when fully open; flanged ends support bolted pipeline integration and inspection access. Typical duties include oil & gas, chemical processing, general industrial service. Confirm end connection, trim, actuation and inspection scope against the approved project data sheet.

Features

Product features

  • Cast Steel Gate Valve design
  • Bubble-tight soft-seat sealing
  • Full bore flow path

Advantages

Selection advantages

  • Select NPS and pressure class inside the published catalogue envelope; freeze the working size on the data sheet before GA release.
  • Design basis and face-to-face follow the standards shown in the technical grid; do not assume a single standard covers every option.

Plant application

Product FAQ

Engineering answers

What size and pressure range is the API 600 Wedged Gate Valve 12 Inch 300 LB WC6 supplied in?

This listing is DN300 (12"), Class 300 / PN50. Confirm the final NPS, class, bore and trim against the approved data sheet.

Which documentation is included in a standard EPC MDR package?

When specified: approved GA drawing, EN 10204 3.1 material certificates, hydrostatic/pneumatic test records to the applicable test standard, NDE reports required by the ITP, coating records if painted, and the ITP release note. CAD/STEP models and bilingual datasheets are issued after size, class and trim are frozen — they are not generic public downloads.

Which design and test standards apply to the API 600 Wedged Gate Valve 12 Inch 300 LB WC6?

Design reference: API 600. Face-to-face: ASME B16.10. Pressure test / inspection: API 598. NACE, fire-safe or fugitive-emission clauses are quoted only when the purchase specification requires them.
