The Golden Harvest, Inc. GH-100 Fully Wedged Stainless Steel Sluice Gate has been in the industry since 1988. The Model GH-100 offers some unique design features that have proven to be a reliable and cost effective alternative to the traditional cast iron sluice gate.
While this gate is a Standard fabricated and not cast iron, it should not be confused with a fabricated slide gate. The GH-100 sluice gate appurtenances meet the latest requirements of AWWA C-560. Depending on the water conditions the sluice gate frame and disc are fabricated from either type 304 or type 316 stainless steel. Although they do not meet the material requirements for AWWA C-560, which specifies cast iron, the structural design is in conformance with the American Water Works Association for cast iron sluice gates {ANSI/AWWA C-560, American Institute of Steel Construction Specifications ASD-Ninth Edition Uniform Building Code U.B.C. 97}. The model GH-100 is provided with adjustable wedge bars on the sides and top of the gate.
