As a professional China rubber disc check valve manufacturer, Yuanjd Valve specializes in the design, production, and supply of high-performance rubber disc check valves for a wide range of industrial applications. Our rubber disc check valves are engineered to provide reliable automatic backflow prevention —allowing fluid to flow in one direction while closing instantly to prevent dangerous reverse flow that could damage pumps, compressors, and other critical system equipment.
Also known as rubber flapper check valves or rubber flap check valves, our products feature a uniquely simple yet durable design with only one moving part —the rubber flapper. Unlike conventional swing check valves that rely on hinge pins and metallic disc rotation, the rubber flapper simply flexes open under forward flow and returns to seal against the seat when flow ceases. This eliminates problems associated with moving parts, shafts, pins, bearings, bushings, and packing found in traditional check valves.
Manufactured in strict accordance with ANSI/AWWA C508 (Swing Check Valves for Waterworks Service), our rubber disc check valves are available in sizes from DN50 to DN1200 (NPS 2″ to 48″), with pressure ratings up to PN16 (250 psi) and temperature ranges from 0°C to 80°C.
Our rubber disc check valve features a 45° valve seat angle relative to the pipe centerline. This unique geometry permits the flapper to travel only 35° from open to closed —less than half the 80° to 90° stroke of a conventional swing check valve. The valve typically closes before column reversal can occur, effectively preventing water hammer and protecting downstream equipment.
With the flapper fully open, there is a straight unobstructed flow passage equal to nominal pipe diameter. This full-flow area design ensures:
Minimal head loss and improved energy efficiency
Self-cleaning action —all foreign matter is flushed away by the flowing medium
No clogging —eliminating issues associated with other valve styles
The flapper is manufactured by vulcanizing a steel plate/reinforced nylon fabric substrate with high-grade elastomer (NBR or EPDM). The result is:
Bubble-tight sealing —an O-ring seal molded into the disc face assures positive sealing even at low pressures
Excellent abrasion and erosion resistance
Over 1 million opening-closing cycles service life
With only three major parts—body, flapper, and cover—our rubber disc check valve requires virtually no regular maintenance. Should maintenance ever be required, the flapper can be replaced in a matter of minutes. The design also features easy in-line serviceability and supports both horizontal and vertical (flow up) installation.
