Valves
Aury Africa in partnership with Ultra Control Valves supplies a comprehensive range of industrial valves designed for precise flow control, isolation, and pressure regulation in fluid handling systems. Engineered for performance in demanding mining, processing, and utility environments, our valves ensure reliable operation across applications involving water, slurry, air, steam, and chemical transfer. Each valve is manufactured to meet global industry standards and is selected for its durability, pressure resistance, and ease of maintenance.
What Are Valves?
Our valve range includes gate valves, butterfly valves, ball valves, knife gate valves, check valves, and pressure relief valves each chosen for its suitability to specific flow conditions and media types. These valves are available in various materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, brass, and specialised alloys to ensure compatibility with corrosive, abrasive, or high-temperature environments. Valve sizing and pressure ratings are matched to system requirements, ensuring optimal performance without compromising safety or efficiency.
Versatility and Range
Our valve lineup includes key valve types suited for both isolation and control functions. These include gate valves for on/off duties, butterfly valves for large-diameter flow regulation, ball valves for compact high-seal applications, knife gate valves for slurry and abrasive media, and check valves to prevent backflow. Each valve is available in a range of configurations including wafer, lugged, flanged, and threaded connections to suit the piping system and space constraints. Materials range from ductile iron and carbon steel to stainless steel and specialty alloys, ensuring compatibility with corrosive and abrasive flows. Valve sizes are available from small bore to large-diameter units, supporting both standard and custom plant requirements.
Integration and Compatibility
Our valves are fully compatible with the flanges, gaskets, and fasteners used in steel, HDPE, and composite piping systems. Whether you are upgrading an existing line or installing a new pipeline network, our valves integrate seamlessly into your layout. Manual and automated actuation options are available, including gearboxes, electric actuators, pneumatic cylinders, and hydraulic operators, all matched to the valve’s size, pressure class, and operating frequency. With proper configuration, valves can be remotely operated and integrated into SCADA or PLC control systems for automated process management.
Performance in Demanding Applications
Valves supplied by Aury Africa are engineered to withstand high-pressure differentials, abrasive particles, frequent cycling, and corrosive environments. Sealing systems are selected to maintain tight shutoff over extended use, while internal coatings or hardened components may be applied for erosion resistance in slurry and chemical lines. In mineral processing plants, knife gate valves are preferred for their ability to isolate thick slurries without clogging, while butterfly valves offer lightweight and cost-effective control for water distribution and dust suppression systems. In fuel lines or compressed air systems, ball valves provide fast, secure shutoff with minimal pressure loss. Each valve is tested to ensure consistent operation, torque control, and alignment with system design pressures and temperatures.
Support and Customisation
Our technical team assists clients with valve selection based on media type, pressure rating, temperature range, and actuation preference. In addition to supply, Aury offers support for flange matching, installation guidance, and gasket compatibility. For specialised systems, valves can be customised with internal linings, modified face-to-face dimensions, or locking mechanisms for safety and maintenance. We also provide complete valve kits that include matched bolts, washers, and gaskets to reduce on-site assembly time and ensure a leak-free seal.
