Industrial Gate Valve Comparison

API 600 and API 603 are valve specifications. API 600 is for steel gate valves for petroleum and petrochemical industries with flanged or butt-welding ends ranging from class 150 to 600. API 603 specifies cast, corrosion resistant gate valves with flange ends for lighter duty usage in class 150 to 300. API 600 is for heavier duty applications with thicker walls and larger stems, while API 603 covers lighter duty valves with thinner walls and smaller stems made of corrosion resistant materials.
