ValvesOnly are best Lubricated Plug Valve Manufacturers in USA. A lubricated plug valve is a type of industrial valve designed for controlling the flow of fluids in a pipeline by using a cylindrical or tapered plug with a through-hole that can be rotated within the valve body. This plug is typically lubricated to reduce friction and wear between the plug and valve body, ensuring smooth operation and longevity. The valve operates by turning the plug inside the body to either obstruct or allow the passage of fluid through the valve. In the closed position, the plug creates a seal against the valve seat, preventing the flow of fluid, while in the open position, the through-hole aligns with the pipeline, allowing fluid to pass through. Lubrication is crucial to minimize friction and wear, enhancing the valve's performance and facilitating ease of operation. This type of valve is commonly used in various industries such as oil and gas, petrochemical, and water treatment due to its reliable and efficient flow control capabilities.
