Where Are HDPE Valves Commonly Used in Midland & the Permian Basin?
HDPE valves are essential for fluid control in oilfield operations, water transfer projects, industrial pipelines, and municipal infrastructure across Midland and the Permian Basin. Their durability and performance in high-pressure and corrosive environments make them a trusted choice for critical applications.
Choosing the Right Valve: Gate, Butterfly, Knife, or Ball?
Each valve type serves a specific purpose—gate valves for isolation, butterfly valves for flow regulation, knife valves for slurry or thick fluids, and ball valves for quick shut-off. Our experts can help you select the right valve based on your system’s pressure, fluid type, and operational needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Gate valves are designed for on/off control and are typically used when a straight-line flow of fluid is required with minimal restriction. They work by lifting a gate out of the fluid path.
Butterfly valves, on the other hand, are ideal for regulating flow and are often used in applications where space-saving, quick shut-off, and moderate control of flow are needed. They use a rotating disc to control the flow.
