U-Series / Maintenance Gate

U-Series / Maintenance GatePlattco’s U-Series is the standard, multi-purpose gate that can be used as either a stand-alone maintenance gate for dry materials, or in combination with Plattco’s Double Flap Airlock® Valves.

A standard, multi-purpose cast slide gate, our low-profile U-Series gates are ideal as a stand-alone maintenance gate or as a shut off gate upstream of matched Plattco flap valves.

Excellence in Design:

  • Cast iron body with stainless steel gate operates in temperatures of 750°F.
  • Distinct drill pattern so the gate will stay in place if equipment below needs to be removed.
  • Low-profile design and superior construction allows for easier installation.
  • Plattco’s graphite gate seals with adjustable seal retainers provide a stronger, longer lasting seal to reduce production downtime.
  • One-piece cast housing for higher durability and greater dependability.
  • Pneumatic or handwheel operation options.

Companies around the world choose Plattco slide gates because they need a solution that will minimize air leakage; easily handle temperatures up to 750°F; offer convenient and inexpensive maintenance for decades of “like new” operation; and, fit their specific applications, using Plattco’s 50 years of experience custom engineering gates for facilities all over the world.
