Unlike the rising stem gate valve, the stem of this valve sits entirely inside the valve body and does not rise or lower during operation. This design saves a great deal of installation space, making the valve well suited to underground valve pits, technical basements, and pipelines running close to building ceilings.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14744\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14744\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14744 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-2.jpg\" alt=\"Van c\u1ed5ng ty ch\u00ecm BTL, Model Z45X-10\/16\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-2-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-2-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-2-600x375.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14744\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTL Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve, Model Z45X-10\/16<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Construction of the BTL Z45X-10\/16 non-rising stem gate valve<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The BTL non-rising stem gate valve has a distinctive design in which the threaded stem is not exposed.

When the handwheel is turned, the stem only rotates in place rather than moving up and down. The threaded motion takes place directly where the stem engages the wedge, pulling the wedge up or pushing it down to open or close the flow.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because the drive thread is in direct contact with the medium, this component is prone to corrosion, so the stem is usually made of stainless steel. In addition, non-rising stem valves are harder to lubricate and maintain than rising stem valves. This is a technical trade-off made in exchange for a compact design that optimizes space.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Furthermore, the fully EPDM-encapsulated wedge allows the valve to seal tightly and quietly and to prevent leakage effectively, without depending on the machining precision of a conventional metal seat.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14750\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14750\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14750 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-4.jpg\" alt=\"Van c\u00f4\u0309ng ty chi\u0300m th\u01b0\u01a1\u0300ng \u0111\u01b0\u01a1\u0323c l\u0103\u0301p \u0111\u0103\u0323t \u01a1\u0309 ca\u0301c kh\u00f4ng gian ha\u0323n ch\u00ea\u0301\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-4-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-4-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/van-cong-ty-chim-BTL-4-600x375.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14750\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Non-rising stem gate valves are commonly installed in space-restricted locations<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Suitable installation locations<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since no clearance is needed above the valve for a rising stem, the BTL non-rising stem gate valve is suitable for:<\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Underground installation (valve pits, valve chambers, buried outdoor water supply lines):<\/strong> This is the most common application for non-rising stem gate valves, because the valve pit does not need to be dug deeper or built taller to accommodate the stem travel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spaces with low ceilings, narrow indoor technical shafts, basements, and technical corridors.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Urban water supply networks and underground fire protection (PCCC) systems:<\/strong> where valves are usually installed in covered manholes and their status does not need to be checked visually on a regular basis.

Unlike the rising stem gate valve, the stem of this valve sits entirely inside the valve body and does not rise or lower during operation. This design saves a great deal of installation space, making the valve well suited to underground valve pits, technical basements, and pipelines running close to building ceilings. Construction of the BTL Z45X-10\/16 non-rising stem gate valve The BTL non-rising stem gate valve has a distinctive design in which the threaded stem is not exposed. When the valve is opened or closed, the stem simply rotates in place without moving up or down. The Z45X-10\/16 consists of the following main components: No. Component Material Function 1 Body Cast iron\u00a0 Main pressure-bearing shell, with flanged ends for pipeline connection 2 Wedge\/Disc Ductile iron GGG50 + EPDM Flow-blocking disc, fully encapsulated in EPDM rubber (resilient seated) to seal the entire flow cross-section 3 Stem Stainless steel Drive shaft, threaded in a fixed position inside the valve body, does not extend outward during operation 4 Gasket EPDM Seals the mating surfaces between the body and the bonnet 5 Bonnet Ductile iron GGG50 Seals the body cavity and holds the stem in position inside 6 Bolts Carbon steel Gr. 8.8 Connect the bonnet to the body; higher strength than ordinary carbon steel (grade 8.8) 7 Cap Cast iron Protective cover for the stem top, connected to the handwheel Dimension table of the BTL Z45X-10\/16 non-rising stem gate valve DN L (mm) D (PN10\/PN16 &#8211; mm) C (PN10\/PN16 &#8211; mm) b (PN10\/PN16 &#8211; mm) n-d (PN10 \/ PN16) H (Height- mm) 50 178 165 125 19 4 &#8211; 19 205 65 190 185 145 19 4 &#8211; 19 225 80<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14740,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[408],"product_cat":[325],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-14759","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-btl","product_cat-gate-valve","pa_ap-suat-pn10","pa_ap-suat-pn16","pa_chat-lieu-cast-iron","pa_model-z45x-10-16","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/14759","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14759"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14740"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14759"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=14759"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=14759"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anphuthanhvalve.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=14759"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
