Abstract: A ball valve system includes a body having an upstream end and a downstream end and a ball within the body between the upstream end and the downstream end, the ball being rotatable about a vertical axis to move between a closed position and an open position. The ball valve assembly includes a stem movable in an actuation direction substantially parallel to the vertical axis, the stem including a recess at a proximal portion of the stem, a guiding member extending within the recess of the stem, the guiding member being configured to prevent rotation of the stem or cause rotation of the stem, and a lubrication port in fluid communication with the recess.

Abstract: A piston check valve system includes a body including an upstream end and a downstream end, a bonnet secured to a proximal opening of the body, and a piston secured within the body, the piston being moveable between a closed position in which the piston rests upon a valve seat and an open position in which the piston is spaced away from the valve seat. The piston check valve system also includes a retainer configured to guide and retain the piston and to secure the valve seat within the body.

Abstract: A gate valve system includes a body including an upstream end, a downstream end, and a flow path extending through the upstream end and the downstream end. The gate valve system includes a gate assembly extending within the body, the gate assembly including a gate a stem secured to the gate and configured to place the expandable gate in a first position in which a flow of fluid is permitted between the upstream end and the downstream end and a second position in which the flow of fluid is prevented. The gate valve system also includes a lubrication port in an exterior of the body, the lubrication port being in fluid communication with an interior of the body and including a lubrication guiding insert configured to guide a supply of lubricating fluid to a location inside the body and between the upstream end and the downstream end.
