EN 1074 Gate Valve

An EN 1074 gate valve is a standardized European infrastructure valve specifically engineered and certified to meet the strict design and performance requirements of European Standard EN 1074 for water supply services. This standard establishes mandatory design criteria—including minimum structural wall thicknesses, low manual operating torque limits, long-term cycling endurance testing, and strict food-grade material approvals—to ensure safe, reliable drinking water transport. Designed with a smooth, cavity-free internal body, the valve utilizes an elastomer-encapsulated ductile iron wedge that forms a perfect, compression-molded seal against the epoxy-coated internal walls, preventing silt deposition and bi-directional leakage. European-spec piping contractors and infrastructure project managers can ensure full regulatory compliance and zero-leakage water distribution by importing certified EN 1074 gate valves directly from specialized manufacturers in China via our advanced B2B commercial platform.
