SFM completed the restoration of a 60 diameter gate valve manufactured in the late 1800's for the Sault Ste. Marie Canal system. This valve was originally put in operation with a water turbine that generated power for the Soo Locks. The age and size of this component posed a challenge, weighing almost 16 000 lbs fully assembled and being covered in lead paint.
