3-inch PVC gate valve for water systems

This Valterra 4309GR gate valve controls water flow in plumbing installations using a 3-inch nominal size and PVC body. It is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 30 psi and a steam pressure of 15 psi with a Class 125 designation. The rising stem and solid wedge are made from 304 stainless steel, while the seat uses stainless steel and the seal uses TPE. A lever handle operates the welded bonnet design with female IPS connections on both sides.

Suitable applications and limits

The valve suits cold-water lines, irrigation networks and low-pressure distribution where 30 psi operating pressure is sufficient. It is not for high-pressure mains, steam lines above 15 psi, hot-water systems exceeding the pressure rating or installations requiring flanged or threaded connections other than female IPS. Buyers needing larger diameters, different connection types or higher pressure ratings must select another model.

Rising stem with 304 stainless steel wedge

The rising stem design shows valve position visually while the solid 304 stainless steel wedge and seat resist corrosion in water service. This construction determines whether the valve matches the media, pressure and maintenance requirements of the specific plumbing project.

Questions about this item

Will the 3 in PVC gate valve handle the same 30 psi water pressure as my existing Class 125 piping?

Yes, the valve is rated for 30 psi maximum operating pressure, matching Class 125 system requirements for water service.

How can I confirm the rising stem is moving the solid wedge correctly after installation?

Operate the lever handle and watch the stem rise visibly; the 304 stainless steel stem and wedge move together, showing positive gate engagement.

Does the 4309GR come with flange gaskets and bolts, or must I supply them for the IPS female connections?

The valve ships with PVC body, welded bonnet, 304 stainless steel stem and wedge, TPE seals, and lever handle only; gaskets and bolts for IPS female ends are purchased separately.
