Metalsin supplies the waterworks project with AWWA C504 flanged concentric butterfly valves which are rubber seated. It features a design where the valve stem axis is perfectly aligned with the centerline of both the butterfly disc and the valve body. This concentric alignment ensures that the disc remains in constant contact with the soft sealing seat (typically made of materials like rubber or PTFE) throughout the valve’s operation. This simple and symmetrical design provides excellent sealing performance for low-pressure and normal-temperature applications, such as water supply and drainage system However, due to continuous contact between the disc and seat, it experiences higher friction during operation, making it less suitable for high-pressure, high-temperature, or abrasive media conditions. Its structure is straightforward, cost-effective, and best suited for light- and medium-duty service.
Other design features of AWWA C504 flanged concentric butterfly valves supplied by Metalsin include: (1) Meeting technical requirements of AWWA C504; (2) The rubber seat is firmly bonded to the valve body; (3) The top mounting flange is furnished in accordance with ISO 5211 to mate with various actuators; (4) Flange and drilling are in compliance with ASME B16.1 Class 125; (5) Rated working pressure: 150 psi; (6) One-piece through stem, double pinned; (7) Fusion-bonded-epoxy coating on both interior and exterior surfaces in accordance with AWWA C550 and NSF/ANSI 61.
