Determining Thrust, Torque and Rimpull
The three major forces involved in valve actuation are thrust, torque
and rimpull. Below is a brief description and formula used to
determine each of the three forces for a particular valve application.
See pages 3 through 7 for reference data to be used with Pacific
gate, globe and stop-check valves to determine thrust, torque and
rimpull for a particular application. These pages also show torque
for differential pressures at full and half maximum cold working
pressure for carbon steel valves.
Thrust is the purely linear push-pull force involved in seating and

unseating a valve. It is determined using the following valve and
application criteria:
A – The valve seat diameter.
If the valve seat diameter is not known, the
port diameter can be assumed to be the seat
diameter for estimating purposes.
B – The maximum differential pressure across the valve seat.
The most common method of determining Torque is a rotary force. For gate and globe valve applications
maximum differential pressure across the valve which have acme threaded rising stems driven by a drive nut, torque
seats is to assign the maximum design or is conversion of thrust from a purely linear force, utilizing the
operating pressure the upstream value P1 and mechanical advantage of a screw to achieve linear movement. The

C –The valve stem diameter. thread characteristics of the valve stem and drive nut (yokesleeve).
Pages AA-3 thru AA-7 contain stem factors for Pacific gate, globe
These criteria are used in the thrust calculation which is the sum of and stop-check valves. Once seating or unseating thrust has been

1. Seating Force = Valve seat area x Max differential Torque = Thrust x Stem factor
Pressure x Valve factor *Example: 6" 150 Ib. Gate valve
Thrust = 2072.2
Where: Valve seat area = (Seat dia)2 x 3.14 Stem factor = .0099
4
Torque = 2072.2 x .0099 = 20.5 ft. Ibs.
Max. differential Pressure = P1- P2
Valve factor = .25 Parallel seat
.3 Gate valve Valve running torque can be calculated utilizing the above formula
1.1 Globe valve substituting running thrust for seating thrust.
2. Stem Load = Valve stem area x Max. upstream pressure
Rimpull is the force which must be applied to the rim of the

torque. The following information is required to calculate handwheel
rimpull:
Note that stem load is applicable to gate valves only as this force is
included in the seating force of globe and stop-check valves. A. Torque required to seat or unseat valve
B. Handwheel diameter
3. Stem Packing Friction = Stem diameter x 2000 for graphite.
Rimpull = Torque ÷ Radius of the handwheel

Where: The radius of the handwheel =
maximum differential pressure 100 PSIG.

1 - Seating force = 28.26 x 100 x .3 = 847.8 lbs.
The radius is converted to feet = Radius
12
Where: Seat area = (6)2 x 3.14
4 *Example: 6"150 Ib. Gate
2 - Stem load = .994 x 100 = 99.4 lbs. Seating or unseating torque = 20.5 ft. Ibs.
Where Stem area = (1.125)2 x 3.14 Handwheel diameter = 14"
4 Rimpull = 20.5 ÷ .583 = 35.2 lbs.
3 - Stem packing friction = 1.125 x 1000 = 1125 Where: 14 = 7 = (Radius in inches)
Thrust to seat or unseat = 847.8 + 99.4 + 1125 = 2072.2 Ibs. 2

Rules of Thumb for Bevel Gearing
Base Unit BGA Attachment 1. On the average, operators should be capable of lifting their
own weight, using this as a guide maximum rimpull can be
estimated, ie; a 175 Ib. man should be able to handle a
seating rimpull up to about 175 Ibs. Rimpulls are often
specified much lower to avoid operator strain and possible
injury.
2. Low rimpull requirements often result in the selection of
bevel gears with high gear ratios. This can result in high
operating times due to the number of turns needed to cycle
the valve. Keep this in mind when specifying a maximum
rimpull.
3. Air wrench operation speeds up cycle time on high gear ratio
bevel gears however, the mechanical advantage available
from bevel gearing enables the operator to damage the
valve. Never seat or back seat the valve using an air wrench;
manually seat and back seat the valves with caution, espe-

Impact Handwheel Adapters and Locking Devices
Locking Devices and Interlocks Typical Interlock Lock Mounting

Increased security concerns and critical sequencing of pro-
cesses have prompted the use of locking devices and interlocks
for valves. While the most basic of locking devices is the chain
and padlock, complex process plants are more frequently
utilizing key interlock systems. Interlock systems are used on
valves when sequencing of valve operation is critical to the
safety of plant personnel, process unit operation or the environ-
ment. Interlocks are provided with keys which are released only
under specific conditions such as when the valve is fully open.
Once the key is released it can be used to open the next valve Interlock
in sequence. For further detailed information, you may contact
the Interlock Manufacturers.

GENERAL NOTES:
(a) The user is responsible for assuring that bolting material is not used beyond the limits specified in the governing code or regulations.
(b) ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section II material that also meet the requirements of the listed ASTM specification may also
be used.
(c) Material limitations, restrictions, and special requirements are shown on pressure-temperature tables.
NOTES:
(1) Repair welding of bolting material is not permitted.
(2) Where austenitic bolting materials have been carbide solution treated but not strain hardened, they are designated Class 1 or
Class 1A in ASTM A193. ASTM A194 nuts of corresponding material are recommended.
(3) Where austenitic bolting materials have been carbide solution treated and strain hardened, they are designated Class 2 in
ASTM A193.
ASTM A194 nuts of corresponding material are recommended.
(4) For limitations of usage and strength levels, see ASME B16.34 para. 5.1.1.
(5) Bolts with drilled or undersize heads shall not be used.
(6) For ferritic bolting materials intended for service at low temperatures, ASTM A194 Gr. 4 or Gr. 7 nuts are recommended.
(7) Acceptable nuts for use with these quenched and tampered steel bolts are ASTM A194 Grade 2 and 2H.
(8) Mechanical property requirements for studs shall be the same as those for bolts.
(9) These are bolting materials suitable for high temperature service with austenitic stainless steel valve materials.
(10) Only Grades 651 and 660 shall be used.
(11) Nuts may be of the same material or may be of compatible grade of ASTM A194.
(12) Forging quality not permitted unless the producer last heating or working these parts tests them as required for other permitted
conditions in the same specification and certifies their final tensile, yield, and elongation properties to equal or exceed the require
ments for one of the other
permitted conditions.
(13) Maximum operating temperature is arbitrarily set at 500°F (260°C) unless material has been annealed, solution annealed, or hot
finished, because hard temper adversely affects design stress in the creep-rupture temperature range.

– Depth of groove or female is 0.19 in. on all sizes and classes.
– Raised portion or full face may be furnished unless otherwise specified on order.
– For small male and female joints care should be taken in the use of these dimensions to insure that
the inside diameter of fitting or pipe is small enough to permit sufficient bearing surface to prevent the
crushing of the gasket. This applies particularly on lines where the joint is made on the end of the pipe.
– Inside diameter of fitting should match inside diameter of pipe as specified by purchaser.
– Large male and female faces and large tongue and groove are not applicable to Class 150 because of
potential dimensional conflicts.

(a) The values in bold face type correspond to the values in the Joint SAE-ASME-ASTM hardness conversions as resulting in larger indentation and lower Brinell number than shown by a carbide ball. Thus, on a specimen of 640
printed in ASTM E48, Table 3. (b) Brinell numbers are based on the diameter of impressed indentation. If the ball Vickers, a Hultgren ball will leave a 2.55 mm impression (578 Bhn) and the carbide ball a 2.50 mm impression
distorts (flattens) during test, Brinell numbers will vary in accordance with the degree of such distortion when (601 Bhn). Conversely, identical impression diameters for both types of ball will correspond to different Vickers
related to hardness determined with a Vickers diamond pyramid, Rockwell brate or other penetrator which does or Rockwell values. Thus, if both impressions are 2.55 mm (578 Bhn) material tested with a Hulgren ball has a
not sensibly distort. At high hardness, therefore, the relationship between Brinell and Vickers or Rockwell scales Vickers hardness of 640, while material tested with a carbide ball has a Vickers hardness of 615 (c). Values in
is affected by the type of ball used. Steel balls (standard or Hultgren) tend to flatten slightly more than carbide balls, parentheses are beyond normal range.
