1. The wedge has two sealing faces. The two sealing surface of the most commonly used gate valve forms a wedge, whose angle varies with valve parameters, usually 5°.
2. The sealing principle of the wedge gate valve depends on the close connection of two sealing surfaces of the wedge and two sealing surfaces of the guide slot of the valve body when they are wedged.
3. The valve body and the bonnet may be connected by bolts, pressure self-tight or welding.
4. The wedge is solid.
