Butterfly valves are compact quarter-turn valves used to isolate or regulate flow in industrial piping systems. At BPC, butterfly valve solutions are supported through a broader valve body lineup, including valve bodies, VF-7 Series valve bodies, and VF-9 Series valve bodies.
Butterfly valves are commonly used where space, weight, and fast operation matter. Compared with some linear valve designs, they offer a streamlined footprint and efficient shutoff for water, chemical, process, and industrial utility systems.
Butterfly valves often work alongside flow measurement and instrumentation. Depending on the application, a system may also require oval gear flowmeters, turbine flowmeters, ultrasonic flowmeters, Atrato flowmeters, or displays and instruments for process visibility.
No matter the application, if a butterfly valve is what you need, we can help supply it. From 3 inch butterfly valves, 4 inch butterfly valves, 6 inch butterfly valves, 8 inch butterfly valves all the way tostainless steel butterfly valves, we have what you need.
Butterfly valves are used in:
| Application | Why Butterfly Valves Are Used |
|---|---|
| Water systems | Compact shutoff and flow control |
| Chemical processing | Material compatibility and efficient operation |
| OEM machinery | Small footprint and simple automation |
| Industrial utilities | Reliable isolation in process lines |
| High-pressure systems | Purpose-built valve body selection |
A butterfly valve is used to start, stop, or regulate flow in a piping system.
Yes. Their quarter-turn design and thin profile make them useful in small-footprint industrial and OEM systems.
Wafer butterfly valves fit between flanges, while lugged butterfly valves use threaded inserts that can support different installation and maintenance requirements.
Yes. Butterfly valves are commonly paired with actuators for automated flow control. BPC also lists actuators as part of its broader valve offering. They can also be pneumatically operated.
