This article from Jordan Valve explains why their sliding gate valves are a good solution for the tire curing process. Take a look at the full article to learn more and see why!

Jordan Valve sliding gate regulators and control valves have proven to be exceptional solutions in tire curing press applications.

The unique characteristics of the sliding gate technology provide several advantages over globe style valves in these processes.

  • The sliding gate design lasts longer in steam service
  • Straight-thru flow reduces turbulence and noise
  • Self-cleaning design requires less maintenance
  • Valve rebuilding take only a few minutes
