Home > Products > Butterfly Valves > Quadruple Offset
The Quattlok™ offset butterfly valve body includes a laminated metal seat ring, composed of alternating layers of corrosion-resistant alloy and composite graphite. Each individual lamination provides an independent seal, unaffected by damage to the others. While improving the long-term sealing properties, the resilience of this laminated design also allows lower operating torques.

Whereas a double offset metal-seated butterfly valve cannot achieve a tight shut-off, Quattlok realizes a tight shut-off using Qublock’s specially designed sealing mechanism in accordance with leakage class VI.
QuattlokTM uses a camming action, which reduces galling or scratching on the sealing surfaces between the disc and seat. This camming action also reduces the possibility of jamming between the sealing elements. The QuattlokTM disc’s sealing surface has different angles at all its points, and the sealing surfaces of the elliptical sealing system are in contact at the final position.
The standard bushing protection ring is not effective in preventing fouling of the bushings associated with an aggressive line medium. The QuattlokTM bushing design guarantees that the line media does not get into the bushing cavity. QuattlokTM sealed bearings provide zero-to-low-ppm performance out of the stem packing. Thus, there is no cavity to allow a build-up of solids.
A butterfly valve’s Cv value varies according to the disc angle and valve design. The optimal disc geometry and cavity-free flow passage of QuattlokTM provide minimum flow resistance and reduce the dead zone, which lead to a high Cv value.
