to 250 lb saturated steam working pressure, although most manufacturers also make valves for medium pressure up to 175 lb steam working pres sure. The more common types are gate valves or straightway valves, globe valves, angle valves, check valves and automatic valves, such as reducing and back-pressure valves.
Gate valves are the most frequently used of all valves since in their open position the resistance to flow is a minimum. These valves may be

secured with either a rising or a non-rising stem, although in the smaller sizes the rising stem is more commonly used. The rising stem valve is desirable because the positions of the handle and stem indicate whether the valve is open or closed, although space limitations may prevent its use. The globe valve is less expensive to manufacture than the gate valve, but its peculiar construction offers a high resistance to flow and may prevent complete drainage of the pipe line. These objections are of particular importance in heating work.
Check valves are automatic in operation and permit flow in only one direction, depending for operation on the. difference in pressure between

Purchaser's order must specify which of these two inside diameters is desired. dThese flanges are regularly bored to match inside diameter of Schedule 40 pipe, but are bored to Schedule 80 pipe when so ordered. These diameters are identical with the diameters of what was formerly designated as Standard Weight Pipe of the corresponding sizes. tThese diameters are identical with the diameters of what was formerly designated as Extra-Strong Pipe of the corresponding sizes.

the two sides of the valve. The two principal kinds of check'valves are the swing check in which a flapper is hinged to swing back and forth, and the lift check in which a dead weight disc moves vertically from its seat.
Valves commonly used for controlling steam or water supply to radi ators constitute a special class since they are manufactured to meet heating system requirements. These valves are generally of the angle type and are usually made of brass. Graduations on the heads or lever' handles are often supplied to indicate the relative opening of the valve in any position. Standard roughing-in dimensions Jor angle-type valves are given in Table 13...._
