These three Eagle Group companies work together to provide a full spectrum of manufacturing services, making it possible to deliver ready-to-install valves with one purchase order.
In addition to casting and machining, the Eagle Group is ready to provide expertise and resources in every stage of product development, including reverse engineering, prototyping, quality control, in-house heat treatment, and finishing (blasting, polishing and coating).
Valve Types and Eagle Group Products
The Eagle Group has extensive experience in manufacturing a wide range of valve types to meet the diverse needs of industries such as water distribution, oil and gas, chemical processing, and HVAC. Our expertise spans several types of valves, including:
- Gate Valves: Designed to provide reliable flow control by lifting or lowering a gate into the fluid path. Often used in water and oil pipelines.
- Ball Valves: Featuring a rotating ball with a bore, these valves provide excellent shut-off capabilities. Commonly used in chemical and gas applications.
- Check Valves: Designed to prevent backflow, our check valves are widely used by water providers to improve safety and prevent water loss.
- Butterfly Valves: Lightweight and compact, these valves regulate flow using a rotating disc. They are ideal for HVAC and water systems.
- Globe Valves: Used for precise flow control in applications requiring throttling, such as steam and gas systems.
Examples of valves we produce include:
- Hydrant Check Valves: Stainless steel valves used in wet-barrel hydrants to prevent geysers when a hydrant is sheared. Rated at up to 250 psi.
- Custom Ball Valves: Manufactured for chemical processing plants requiring durability and precision.
- Industrial Gate Valves: Designed for high-pressure pipelines, ensuring long-lasting performance.
We pride ourselves on our ability to adapt to customer needs and deliver innovative solutions for valve manufacturing. If you have a specific valve project in mind, contact us to learn more.
