The body-bottom clean-out/drain plug is a direct answer to sediment or precipitate settling in a mining leach-solution gate valve — a valve without that drain feature accumulates solids in the body over repeated cycles.
Acidic leach solution is exactly the chemistry that attacks a metal gate valve's wetted surfaces — the Type P's no-metal-to-media construction plus ISO 5752 short pattern means it drops into the existing flange spacing when the metal valve it's replacing finally fails.
