An Improved Valve With A Proven History

We took an alternative path.  Unlike many valve manufacturers who often strip valves in their quest to reduce manufacturing costs, we have taken a proven double block and bleed plug valve and improved its design.

With the new DuraSeal™, you get the proven advantages of a valve that has been considered the standard of quality since 1951. To improve the valves integrity, we have incorporated a superior seat design, more durable body, and plug and slip materials. To improve performance and longevity, we have incorporated a more reliable stem seal design and bearing.

In short, the new Franklin DuraSeal™ is made to last - not to make a quick sale.
