Engineered for reliability and longevity, FIFFCO’s range of HVAC Copper Gate Valves provides the ultimate solution for flow isolation in commercial and industrial fluid control systems. Designed specifically for full-flow applications, these valves ensure minimal pressure drop, making them the preferred choice for MEP engineers across the UK.
Unlike regulating valves, our copper gate valves are built for ‘fully open’ or ‘fully closed’ service. Manufactured to meet rigorous BS 5154 and BS EN 12288 standards, they offer exceptional durability against corrosion, ensuring your system remains leak-free and compliant with UK safety regulations.

At FIFFCO, we prioritise material integrity. Our gate valves are constructed from high-grade Copper Alloy and DZR (Dezincification Resistant) Brass. This material selection is critical for UK water systems, as DZR brass prevents the leaching of zinc, significantly extending the valve’s lifespan in both hard and soft water areas.
These valves are strictly designed for isolation duties, allowing maintenance teams to shut off specific sections of pipework without draining the entire system. Due to their full-bore design, they offer negligible resistance to fluid flow when open.
Common applications include:
We understand that delays on site cost money. That is why FIFFCO is the trusted partner for UK mechanical contractors.
The primary function is isolation. They are designed to stop or allow the flow of liquid fully. They should not be used for throttling (controlling flow rate), as this can cause vibration and damage the valve seat (wire drawing).
Yes, the majority of our copper and DZR brass gate valves hold WRAS Approval, making them legal and safe for use in UK potable (drinking) water systems. Please check the specific datasheet for the approval number.
Gate valves can be installed vertically or horizontally. However, we recommend avoiding installing them with the handwheel pointing downwards, as debris and sediment can collect in the bonnet, potentially causing the valve to seize over time.
Don’t compromise on system integrity with inferior fittings. Ensure total compliance and durability with FIFFCO’s premium range.
