Our Dandong Foundry can produce some valve parts by grey cast iron, ductile cast iron and cast steel materials.
The valve body, bonnet and disc are the main parts of the valve and are directly subjected to the medium pressure. The materials used must comply with the standard of "pressure and temperature rating of the valve".
The common materials and standard as below:
