ABSTRACT:
The antifriction device for the control shaft of a flow-regulating valve comprises a hollow body and a closure member rotatably mounted within the hollow body. An annular flange is formed on the control shaft at the level of at least one of the packing gland seals and applied against an annular shoulder of the valve body which surrounds the control shaft, a washer formed of material which is capable of creep deformation being interposed between the flange and the shoulder. A peripheral groove is formed in the shaft opposite to the washer and receives the washer material in the event of creep flow.
