The Lug Type Butterfly Valve is a high-performance flow control solution engineered for precision, durability, and versatility in industrial piping systems. Designed to meet rigorous international standards including EN 593, BS 5155, and MSS SP-67, this valve provides a compact yet powerful mechanism for regulating or isolating the flow of various media with minimal pressure drop.
Featuring a robust construction with available materials ranging from Ductile Iron to Stainless Steel, these valves are optimized for wide-ranging applications. With size options extending up to 48", the Lug Type Butterfly Valve ensures seamless integration into existing infrastructures while providing superior sealing performance through high-quality NBR, EPDM, or PTFE seats.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lug type valves have threaded inserts (lugs) that allow them to be bolted directly to the pipe flange, enabling them to be used for end-of-line service where one side of the piping can be removed without disturbing the valve.
For high-temperature or chemically aggressive environments, PTFE is the recommended seat material due to its superior thermal stability and chemical inertness compared to NBR or EPDM.
Yes, our Lug Type Butterfly Valves are manufactured to meet ASME B16.1 flange dimensions and follow API 598 inspection and testing standards.
We provide a wide range of sizes starting from DN40 up to a maximum of 48 inches to accommodate various industrial flow requirements.
Yes, because our valves feature a top flange designed to ISO 5211, they can be easily equipped with pneumatic or electric actuators for automated control.
For seawater or highly corrosive environments, we recommend selecting Stainless Steel or Aluminum Bronze for the disc and stem, paired with an EPDM seat.
