Fabricated Slide Gates
Armtec offers fabricated slide gates that are designed and fabricated from special shaped extrusions or structural angles, flats and plates and are assembled by welds and bolts. Since there are no machined parts or wedging devices in the gate itself, the gate depends upon water pressure and seal design to seat the fabricated slide. Fabricated slide gates are usually furnished with rubber seals to improve water-tightness. They are designed for either open channel use or aperture-type applications. Open channel gates have no frame member or seal at the top of the slide. These gates will overflow. Aperture gates (over an opening) have top frame member and seals to shut off flow at depths greater than the slide height.
