Stop Plate detail

Sizes available

TUFGATE Aluminum Stop Gates are widely used in wastewater treatment plant design. Designed for flow control with minimal seepage. The gates consist of 1/4" aluminum plates reinforced with aluminum structural shapes. The gates can be designed in-house for most any width and head.

The frames are aluminum extrusions, alloy 6063-T6 and incorporate a continuous concrete anchor. Embeded as well as face mounted frames are available. Anti-friction inserts are an option for each frame type. The inserts serve to reduce the required lifting capacity of the gates.
