The document describes various features and specifications of sluice gates. Sluice gates can be offered for seating or unseating applications with different wedge configurations. Gates are provided with metal sealing faces and can have conventional or flush bottom closures. A threaded stem connects the shutter to the spindle and lift mechanisms are used to operate large gates. Gates undergo various shop tests to check for leaks, structural integrity, and proper operation. Materials and optional features like electric operators are also outlined.
