Gate Valve Replacement
I have a little bit of leakage. Who makes the BEST gate valves? The one that needs replacement at the moment is the black water one (3"?).

OK, so does "replacing", which I'm inclined to do, involve cutting off the old one, leaving enough of a "flange" to glue the new one on?
NO NO NO NO
The flanges are a one-time install. The valve is sandwiched between those flanges and sealed with a square cross section O-Ring on each side. Little bolts hold the sandwich together. New valve comes with new bolts/nuts and the O-Rings.
