Are you searching for valves for your industry but are confused about which type would serve your purpose? GPI manufactures a number of valves suitable for the gas and oil industries. Among many, the reduced bore valves are more sought after, as compared to full bore valves, by those where turbulence in the flow does not become a concern. To put it simply, unlike full bore valves, reduced bore valves have a giant ball within so there is less friction in the pipeline. If you do not have to take material characteristics and pressure drop into account, it is advisable to opt for reduced bore valves owing to their ultimate functionality. It is up to the actuator to rotate the ball core to make adjustments in the valve. Such valves are great when it is a matter of maintaining environmental protection in chemical industries and also in the field of construction.

GPI has maintained a reputation in the market for producing great quality reduced bore valves. The standard diameter of a bore valve is equivalent to that of the tube or the pipe through which it is entering or exiting. Reduced bore valves signify the bore to have a smaller size than the internal diameter of the pipeline. Owing to its smaller volume, it can be easily installed and the work gets done quickly. This valve also comes at a cheaper rate than that of the full bore valves and is around 30% lighter as well.

Before choosing the type of valve, understand the type of your project. With GPI’s help, you can avail the best reduced bore valves that would cause pressure drops easily and would smoothly convey gas or such other similar elements.
