Type 43 Gate Valve
Engineered for ease of closure and seal, aXoN’s Type 43 gate valves are designed especially for harsh environments encountered during fracking, snubbing, or workover operations. This unique gate valve design features a compact footprint, and optimized weight, as well as minimal damage to seal surfaces, resulting in increased performance and reduced repair costs. These Type 43 gate valves can also be fitted with full array of aXoN actuators.
