Abstract:
A valve assembly can include a valve body, a seat, and a seat cover. In one aspect, the valve body can include an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface can define a body bore and a valve body groove having a bottom groove surface. The seat can include an inner surface defining a seat bore and an outer surface defining a seat alignment rib configured to be positioned in the valve body groove. In one aspect, the valve body groove can define a deformation gap between the bottom groove surface and an outer surface of the seat alignment rib. The seat cover can include an inner surface defining a seat cover bore. In one aspect, the seat cover can be mounted on the seat with an outer surface of the seat cover facing the inner surface of the seat.
