GH-29 Sluice Gate: Tapered Wedge Design

Reliable, Durable, and Designed to Excel

The Golden Harvest, Inc. Model GH-29 Sluice Gate sets the standard for performance and reliability with its advanced tapered wedge design. By combining the proven benefits of adjustable wedging action with resilient seals, the GH-29 delivers exceptional sealing performance that exceeds AWWA specifications.

Customizable to meet your specific project needs, the GH-29 is available in various sizes and operating head conditions. It offers versatile mounting options, including wall mount, thimble mount, or 125# flange. Whether you require a non-self-contained configuration or prefer self-contained or bench stand frames, the GH-29 adapts seamlessly to your requirements.

Designed for Superior Performance

The GH-29 tapered wedge design is engineered for precision and efficiency:

  • Seamless Sealing: The slide is angled to align perfectly with the frame’s seating surface. During the final rotations of the operating stem, the gate wedges securely against the sealing perimeter, creating an almost leak-proof seal.

  • Adjustable Reinforcement: Fully adjustable wedges at the top of the slide provide added strength, ensuring superior performance even under high unseating head conditions.

  • Low Friction Operation: Once unseated (after approximately 2 inches of upward travel), the gate operates with minimal friction, ensuring smooth and reliable performance.

For projects requiring lightweight materials, a similar design is available in aluminum as the Model GH-27.

Key Features

  • Exceptional Sealing Performance: Designed to withstand moderate to high unseating head pressures.

  • Customizable Design: Fully adjustable wedging system for enhanced reliability.

  • Heavy-Duty Construction: Crafted with Type 304 or 316 corrosion-resistant stainless steel for durability in demanding environments.

Applications
