Description

What is the common material for valve body?

Valve bodies can be made from a variety of materials, including metals and non-metals, depending on the fluid, pressure, tempreature and other factors. Baoding Guokun can cast the customized valve bodies as per the following metals:

Valve Body material
Cast iron valve body	more suitable for low pressure valves with working temperature between -15~200 °C and nominal pressure no more than PN16.
Ductile iron valve body	Stronger and tougher than gray cast iron valve body, making it more suitable for medium and low pressure valvess with working temperature between –30°C to 350°C and nominal pressure no more than PN40.
Carbon steel valve body	Suitable for water, steam, air, hydrogen, ammonia, nitrogen and petroleum medium. WCB valve body or WCC valve body is suitable for medium and high pressure with working tempearture range of –30°C to 425°C and nominal pressure can reach up to PN420.
Austenitic stainless steel valve body	Suitable for the valve of corrosive medium with working tempeature range of –196°C to 816°C. SS304 and SS316 is durable and resistant to corrosion, making it a good choice for a wide range of applications.
Cast copper alloy valve body	used in valves for oxygen and sea water pipelines, with a working temperature range of –273°C to 200°C.

Stainless steel is a type of low-carbon steel that is resistant to corrosion and rusting. It is made from iron, chromium, and other elements, such as nickel, carbon, molybdenum, and nitrogen. The chromium content in stainless steel is at least 10.5%, which creates a chromium oxide layer on the surface that protects the material from further oxidation.

Stainless steel has many properties, including corrosion resistance, durability, temperature resistance, recyclability, maintenance, modern appearance, high tensile strength, good ductility and high hardness. The stainless steel can be used in many different industries, such as automotive, aircraft, construction, marine, medical, food, etc.

The common stainless steel grades

Grades	Chemical Composition				Mechanical Properties
Grades	C	Cr	Ni	Mo	Tensile Strength MPa	Yield strength Mpa	Elongation %
304	≤0.08	18 ~ 20	8 ~ 11	–	≥520	≥205	≥45
304L	≤0.03	18 ~ 20	8 ~ 12	–	≥480	≥175	≥45
316	≤0.08	16 ~ 18	10 ~ 14	2 ~ 3	≥520	≥205	≥45
316L	≤0.03	16 ~ 18	10 ~ 14	2 ~ 3	≥480	≥175	≥45
410	≤0.12	11.5 ~ 13.5	≤0.75	–	≥440	≥205	≥20
430	≤0.12	16 ~ 18	≤0.75	–	≥450	≥205	≥22

The most common stainless steel alloy is austenitic stainless steel, particularly Grade 304 and Grade 316, which is a mixture primarily composed of Cr and Ni, offering good corrosion resistance and excellent formability, making them widely used in various applications.

Baoding Guokun also can produce cast iron valve body, ductile iron valve body, gray iron valve body, bronze valve body, brass valve body, stainless steel valve body, austenitic stainless steel valve body, duplex stainless steel valve body, alloy steel valve body as per your drawings or design. The stainless steel ball valve body is produced by silica sol investment casting process.

What is metal casting process of valve body?

Sand casting: Sand casting process is an industrial metal casting process that involves creating a mold from sand and pouring molten metal into it, generally used to cast the shaped parts of nearly any design, including large parts and those with internal passages. Baoding Guokun can produce various sand cast parts in cast iron, ductile iron, gray iron, low-carbon steel, mild steel, alloy steel for pump, valve, agriculture, railway, road, forklift, tillage, mining, automotive, medical, food, and aircraft, etc
