DIN Rising Stem Cast Iron Gate Valves
DIN rising stem cast iron gate valves are outside-screw rising-stem wedge gates to DIN 3352 F4/F5: the stem rises visibly as the valve opens, giving at-a-glance position indication, and the cast iron body covers DN40 to DN600 at PN16 to PN420 on the benchmark page. Face-to-face follows DIN 3202 / ISO 5752, flanges to DIN 2501, with flanged and butt-weld ends and handwheel through pneumatic operation options.

Application & selection guidance
Specify this execution where stem-rise headroom exists and position indication matters - plant water, HVAC and general industrial service on DIN-standard lines. Cast iron bounds the medium and temperature: it suits water and neutral fluids, not thermal shock or aggressive media; the stainless and brass stem and seal-ring materials on the benchmark page define the wetted trim. PN420 appears as the top of the source-declared pressure span, but confirm the per-size rating at quotation because cast iron bodies are normally pressure-limited at large bore.
Frequently asked questions
Rising stem vs non-rising stem gate valve - how do I choose?
A rising stem moves upward with the wedge: the open position can be read from the stem, and the stem threads live outside the line medium where they stay lubricated and inspectable. It needs headroom equal to the travel. A non-rising stem keeps a constant height for buried or space-limited chambers but hides the position. Choose rising stem wherever the height is available and indication or stem maintenance matters.
What do DIN 3352 F4 and F5 mean?
They are the two face-to-face series of DIN 3352 for gate valves: F4 is the shorter series and F5 the longer one. The benchmark page lists both, so the execution can be matched to existing DIN 3202 / ISO 5752 face-to-face layouts - order the series that matches the installed gap, because the two are not physically interchangeable.
What information is needed to quote a DIN rising stem cast iron gate valve?
Nominal diameter (DN40 to DN600 on the benchmark page), pressure rating (the source page declares a PN16 to PN420 span), the F4 or F5 face-to-face series, flange drilling (DIN 2501), the medium with temperature, and the operation (handwheel, gear, electric or pneumatic). Confirm the exact per-size pressure limit at quotation for the larger bores.
Ordering & documentation
Documents
Ask for the documentation set you need with the inquiry β typical items for this execution (material certificates, test reports to the listed inspection standard, dimensional drawings) are confirmed and supplied with the quotation.
Quotation
A quotation-ready inquiry states: nominal size and pressure rating, body and seat material preference, end connection, operation, and the service medium with temperature. Typical values on this page are benchmark reference ranges; the binding values are confirmed at quotation.
Sample & supply
Supply terms, order quantities and lead time are agreed per order β state the destination country and required schedule with the inquiry.
Storage & shipping
Store valves with seats and seals protected from UV, ozone and deformation, keep end-face protectors on until installation, and for elastomer- or PTFE-seated executions avoid prolonged outdoor storage β seat compounds age fastest in direct sunlight and freezing conditions.
