Lug type butterfly valves are a subtype of butterfly valves that are designed to be mounted using mating flange bolts. These bolts connect the valve to the pipeline flange, enabling it to isolate and regulate flow in a wide range of applications. They are typically installed in pipelines that require frequent maintenance or inspection, as the valve can be easily removed without disrupting the pipeline.

Lug type butterfly valves are often used in marine, oil and gas, and industrial applications. Their robust design makes them ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature systems, where tight shut-off is required. The valves are designed with a groove around the valve body, which accommodates the mating flange bolts. This design enables the valve to be bolted directly to the pipeline, so it can be quickly removed for maintenance or replacement.

The primary advantage of lug type butterfly valves is their ability to provide bi-directional sealing, making them ideal for applications where flow direction may change. The valve is operated using a quarter-turn motion, either by a lever, gear operator, or actuator. The valve disk is positioned at right angles to the flow when closed and rotated parallel to the flow when fully open, allowing for maximum flow capacity.

Lug type butterfly valves are available in a range of materials, including cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, and plastic. The valve disk can be made of metal, PTFE, or rubber, depending on the media being handled and the temperature and pressure requirements of the system.

In conclusion, lug type butterfly valves are a reliable and cost-effective solution for regulating and isolating flow in a variety of applications. Their unique design enables them to be quickly and easily installed, removed, and serviced, making them ideal for industries that require frequent maintenance or inspection. The choice of material and configuration should be based on the specific application requirements to ensure optimal performance, longevity, and safety.
