BSPP or NPT threaded API 602Threaded SS316, 800 PSI gate valve, 1/2" to 2"
A rising‑stem gate valve for isolation, with BSPP or NPT threaded ends, 1/2" to 2" (DN15 to DN50), in Stainless steel F316 forged. Rated 800 PSI, built to API 602 and tested to API 598. Graphite packed — isolation duty only, never throttling.
The Threaded SS316, 800 PSI gate valve
Isolation duty, BSPP or NPT threaded ends, built to API 602.
A rising‑stem gate valve for isolation, with BSPP or NPT threaded ends, in 1/2" to 2" (DN15 to DN50). The body is Stainless steel F316 forged, rated 800 PSI, designed and manufactured to API 602 with ends to ASME B1.20.1 and inspection and testing to API 598.
Fully open, the gate lifts clear of the bore and the valve presents almost no restriction and almost no pressure drop. That is what a gate valve is for. It is not a throttling valve: held part‑open, flow across the partly‑raised gate vibrates it and erodes both gate and seat, and the damage is permanent. To regulate flow, use a globe valve.
- ⚠ Isolation only. Fully open or fully shut — never throttle a gate valve. A throttled gate eventually will not shut off at all.
- Forged F316, built to API 602 — against the cast CF8/CF8M and ASME B16.34 of the 200 PSI version. That is why this one takes 800 PSI and is tested to 21.5 MPa, the highest figure in the gate valve range.
- The catalogue prints the working temperature as “200”, without a unit. We quote it as printed and confirm the working temperature with the factory on enquiry before you commit to hot duty.
- The catalogue publishes one dimension table for this valve and the 200 PSI version. We quote it as printed and confirm dimensions on enquiry for the exact rating you are buying.
- What is solid: the parts list, the test pressures and the standards — all specific to this valve and internally consistent.
- Tested to 21.5 MPa shell and 15.5 MPa seal, with gas tightness at 0.6 MPa. Proof tests, not working pressures. The figures.

- The item numbers are the manufacturer’s, taken from the sectional drawing rather than renumbered 1 to 17. We publish them as printed so a spares order matches the drawing.
- Graphite packing is what allows the temperature rating. A gate valve seats metal to metal and packs the stem with graphite — no PTFE in the pressure boundary, which is why this range goes far past a ball valve.
Sizes and dimensions
6 sizes. Dimensions in millimetres.
Letters follow the manufacturer’s drawing. L is the face‑to‑face length and the figure that decides whether the valve drops into your run; H is the height with the stem risen. Where a letter is ambiguous we have left it exactly as published rather than guess at it.
| Size | Face‑to‑face L | Bore d | Height H | Flange OD D |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1/2" | 51.6 | 13.7 | 89.5 | 63.1 |
| 3/4" | 56.8 | 18.3 | 96.8 | 63.1 |
| 1" | 60.2 | 24.2 | 108.9 | 70.6 |
| 1 1/4" | 70.2 | 25.3 | 120.6 | 70.6 |
| 1 1/2" | 73.1 | 31.6 | 132.9 | 96.5 |
| 2" | 84.2 | 44.5 | 153.4 | 98.3 |
- ⚠ Allow headroom above the height figure. This is a rising stem valve — the stem and handwheel travel up as it opens, and you need clearance above that plus room to turn the wheel.
- Measure the gap in the run against L, and on a replacement measure the valve coming out rather than trusting a drawing.
Test pressures
Factory proof tests. Not working pressures.
| Nominal Pressure | 800 PSI |
| Strength Test | 21.5 MPa |
| Sealing Test | 15.5 MPa |
| Back Seat Test | 15.5 MPa |
| Air Sealing Test | 0.6 MPa |
| Max Working Pressure | 200 |
- ⚠ Do not design to these. They are proof tests well above the working rating — the body or shell test proves the casting or forging, the seal test proves the gate against its seat.
- Inspected and tested to API 598, the standard common to all ten gate valve variants, which is what makes these figures comparable across the range. All ten.
Not sure this is the right one?
End type first, then material, then pressure.
Choose this one when
- Your pipework is BSPP or NPT threaded — checked, not assumed.
- The duty suits Stainless steel F316 forged.
- 800 PSI covers the working pressure.
- Your specification names API 602.
- You need to isolate, not regulate.
Choose something else when
- You need to throttle → globe valves. A gate valve will be damaged doing it.
- You need fast, frequent isolation → ball valves, a quarter turn instead of many.
- Your pipework is a different end type or flange standard → pick by end type.
- You need more pressure at small bore → the threaded or socket weld forged valves at 800 PSI.
- You need corrosion resistance → an SS316 variant.
- You need larger than 6" → butterfly valves.

Questions we get asked
The ones that come up on the phone.
What is the Threaded SS316, 800 PSI gate valve?
A rising‑stem gate valve for isolation duty with BSPP or NPT threaded ends, 1/2" to 2" (DN15 to DN50), in Stainless steel F316 forged, rated 800 PSI. Designed and manufactured to API 602, ends to ASME B1.20.1, inspected and tested to API 598. Tested at 21.5 MPa shell and 15.5 MPa seal.
Can I use it to control flow?
No. It is an isolation valve — fully open or fully shut. Held part‑open, flow across the partly‑raised gate makes it vibrate and erodes both the gate and its seat, and that damage is permanent: a throttled gate valve eventually will not shut off at all. To regulate flow use a globe valve.
What temperature will it take?
The catalogue prints the working temperature as “200”, without a unit, so we confirm the working temperature with the factory on enquiry before you commit to hot duty. The construction is a forged F316 body with graphite packing.
Will it fit my pipework?
It is BSPP or NPT threaded, to ASME B1.20.1. BSPP and NPT are not interchangeable — a mismatched pair engages, feels tight, then leaks later. If you are unsure which is on the existing pipework, send a photo before ordering.
What is it made of?
Stainless steel F316 forged. The full numbered parts list is on this page, with the manufacturer’s own item numbers preserved so a spares order matches the drawing. Stainless throughout, so it suits corrosive fluids and wet or coastal environments.
Why is it rated 800 PSI?
Because the body is forged and small. A forged body is denser and stronger than a casting, and a small body contains pressure far more easily than a large one — so this valve is tested to 21.5 MPa, around seven times the flanged shell test in the same range. The trade is size: it stops at 2".
Do I need extra height above the valve?
Yes. This is a rising stem valve — the stem and handwheel travel up as it opens. Allow clearance above the published height plus room to turn the wheel. It is the dimension most often forgotten when replacing a valve in a tight space.
Gate valve or ball valve?
Temperature and speed decide it. Gate valves in this range work to 425 °C because they seal metal‑to‑metal with graphite packing; the PTFE‑seated ball valves stop at 150 °C. But a ball valve is a quarter turn and a gate valve is many turns. For hot service, gate. For fast or frequent isolation, ball.
