Keckley cast iron wafer body double disc check valves have pin retainer holes in the body where plugs are inserted to hold the hinge pin and stop pin in place. Keckley double disc check valves offer a short face-to-face dimension, are lighter in weight than full body check valves, and are double disc spring loaded to provide a low cracking pressure. The design of the tension spring performs a lifting motion on the disc to prevent excessive wear on the “heel” area of the elastomer seat. The independent, dual shaft design allows interchangeability of shafts. The stop shaft stabilizes the discs during high flow rates.
