Valves
Aury Africa supplies a comprehensive range of industrial valves designed to regulate, isolate, and control the flow of fluids in mining, mineral processing, water treatment, and industrial applications. Valves are critical components in any pipeline system, enabling safe operation, efficient process control, and quick isolation for maintenance. Our valve range is engineered for long-term performance under high pressure, abrasive flow, corrosive media, and harsh environmental conditions.
What Are Valves?
Our valves are designed for seamless integration into steel, HDPE, and composite piping systems, and can be installed with standard flanges, gaskets, and bolting hardware. Valves can be manually operated or fitted with electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuators for remote control or automated sequencing.
Aury also supports valve selection, specification matching, and flange compatibility, ensuring accurate installation and leak-free operation across your infrastructure.
Technical Support and Services
Aury Africa’s team of engineers and technical consultants provides full support throughout the valve lifecycle, from specification and sizing to installation, commissioning, and maintenance. We help customers:
-
Select the correct valve for pressure, temperature, and media
-
Optimise actuation and control requirements
-
Plan for maintenance intervals and critical spares
-
Implement system upgrades or retrofits for aging valves
We also offer site support, valve performance assessments, and stockholding strategies to reduce lead times and ensure operational readiness during shutdowns.
Product Range and Compatibility
Aury Africa offers an extensive portfolio of valve types to suit various industrial functions and media characteristics. These include:
-
Gate valves for on/off isolation with minimal pressure drop
-
Ball valves for fast, low-torque shut-off applications
-
Butterfly valves for compact flow control in large-diameter pipes
-
Knife gate valves for handling thick slurries and abrasive solids
-
Check valves to prevent backflow and protect pumps
-
Pressure relief valves for overpressure protection in sealed systems
Our valves are available in a wide range of materials, such as cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, and high-alloy options, depending on fluid compatibility and corrosion risk. Valve connections are supplied in flanged, threaded, lugged, wafer, or welded formats to match your system requirements and standards (SANS, ANSI, DIN, ISO).
Applications Across Industry
Valves from Aury Africa are used across a wide spectrum of industries and operations, including:
-
Slurry transport in mineral processing plants
-
Process water and reagent lines in flotation circuits
-
Chemical dosing and neutralisation systems
-
Fire water and dust suppression infrastructure
-
Underground mine dewatering and compressed air supply
-
Bulk material transfer systems with pressure regulation
Their ability to provide controlled isolation and reliable shut-off under challenging flow conditions makes them indispensable to plant reliability and personnel safety.
Performance in Harsh Environments
All valves supplied by Aury Africa are engineered to perform in the demanding environments of mines, plants, and industrial facilities. This includes handling high solids content in slurries, corrosive chemicals, temperature fluctuations, and continuous flow cycles.
Valves are selected and specified based on pressure rating, temperature range, fluid velocity, and media characteristics. For abrasive applications like slurry pipelines, we offer valves with reinforced internals, replaceable liners, and high-chrome or rubber-lined options to extend service life. For clean water or utility systems, lightweight valves with low maintenance needs are available to simplify operations and reduce costs.
