Gate valve,as you can understand from the name itself, is a type of valve that works like a barrier gate. It uplifts the gate when water or any fluid needs to be passed through the piping chamber. However, when the fluid supply needs to be cut off, the gate-like structures in the valves are closed. One of the biggest features of a gate valve is it's straight pathway, which puts minimum pressure on the walls of the chambers. Gate valves can be found in different shapes and sizes that can suit your requirements perfectly!
