Hydro Gate - Hand Pull Stop Gates
Hydro Gate hand-pull stop gates feature an extruded metal or break formed plate section to act as a guide for the gate slide. The guide can be embedded in side walls or mounted on the face of a rectangular flume or conduit. The gate consists of an aluminum or stainless steel plate which can be reinforced if necessary, and has hand holes or handles for manual opening of the gate. A hand-pull gate is an economical way to divert water in rectangular channels.
