Plug valves are designed to operate with a lubricant / sealant. When the lubricant is applied to the valve, it is distributed between the seating faces of the valve body and plug. The lubricant provides an integral sealing and corrosion preventative film. As the plug is covered by the lubricant over all surfaces, a smooth, controlled actuation is achieved over extended maintenance periods. Valve Lubricant 601 is used for the lubrication and sealing of Plug Valves. 601 has been field proven to remain cohesive within the plug valve whilst providing the necessary sealing. This is unlike other sealants which may harden, resulting in leakage and exceptionally high actuation torques that can damage the valve stem. The use of 601 in plug valves has allowed operators to standardise on one lubricant product on all wellhead and downstream flow control with both gate and plug valves installed High pressure hand gun, 601 cartridges for plug valve lubrication.
