A butterfly valve comprising a valve body provided with a hard body seat having a cylindrical sealing surface, and a valve disc rotatable within the body and provided with a hard disc seat on the periphery thereof. The body seat and the disc seat are adapted to contact each other substantially over the entire circumference. The valve of this invention is capable of good sealing and is opened with a small driving force.
