Be careful what you ask for. There are cities in both Japan and Russia that go by the name of Usa. Some early manufacturing that came from Japan were labeled as "Made in USA" and it was perfectly legal.

And there are also cities in the U.S. with the name 'China' in Indiana, Michigan, Maine and Texas.

But to answer your question...sorry no.

Beg to differ, as I stated Mueller Company has plants in Chattanooga, TN and Albert-ville, AL. Both sites make various cast iron and brass valves from 3" up to 60". There are others here in the States that make brass ball valves and such as well. Not hard to find. There is a place in La Porte, In that sells to contractors and stocks U.S. Made and overseas materials for contractors, so you have a choice. Look around easy to find.

Ross Valve are primarily globe valve bodies to produce PRV's, flow control values and altitude values, etc.

To the best of my knowledge they do not manufacture gate valves.

For the water industry, the two largest gate valve manufacturers are Mueller and Clow.

Hi, as I've just got back into supply / materials cataloguing after a 4 year break - [not of my choosing] you should give a little more detail as to valve size, style, usage, material etc.Can the hand wheel operation be changed to powered? Where is the valve to be located {don't say the obvious, a pipe string} etc.
