The 2-1/2 in. wafer butterfly valve (part 9650G2.5SE) is a flangeless, gear-operated valve with a 316-grade stainless steel disc and EPDM seat — the right combination for chemical feed, wastewater, and treated-water service where Buna-N seats degrade. The ductile iron wafer body installs between standard ANSI B16.5 125/150 lb pipe flanges.

Prefer a lever? See the lever-operated version of this size. For plain water, HVAC, or light-oil service, the ductile iron disc / Buna-N seat version costs less.
Need lug-style construction for dead-end or downstream isolation? See the lug-body version, 9660G2.5SE.
Common Applications
Water and wastewater treatment, chemical feed and sodium hypochlorite lines, pool and spa systems, food-adjacent washdown, and treated or deionized water where Buna-N seats break down. Note: EPDM is not suitable for oils or fuels — use the Buna-N version for those.
Cross-References & Interchange
Replacing another brand's 2-1/2 in. wafer butterfly valve? API 609 Class A wafer bodies interchange dimensionally across manufacturers — match nominal size, seat and disc materials, and flange class, or send us your part number and we will confirm the fit.
Availability
In stock — ships direct from the manufacturer, typically 1–3 business days.
