Forged Steel Ball Valves

Forged Floating Ball Valves are used mainly in Oil, Gas Transmission and Distribution Pipeline, Petroleum ,Chemistry, Chemical Fiber, Metallurgy, Paper Pulp etc. The forging material can ensure sufficient rigidity and strength under maximum rated operation pressure without inherent flaw of cast. The Forged Steel Body assures uniform fine grain structure and toughness free from inevitable casting defects such as porosity, abscess, crackle, gas hole. Enough wall thickness of separate Body and Adapters and high strength tie bolts are convenient for valve maintenance and sufficient to bear the stress of pipe.

About Me

Standards: Michael Valves Design and manufacture - API 6D / BS 5351 View my complete profile Pressure-temperature rating - ASME B16.34 Face to face dimensions - ASME B16.10 Flange type and dimensions ASME B16.5 Butt-welded end ASME B16.25 Inspection and test API 598, ASME B16.34 Size range NPS up to NPS 8 Pressure rating 150 lb to 300 lb Fire Safe. Forged Steel Floating Ball Valves fire safe is designed in compliance with API 607-4th, API 6FA and BS 6755 Part 2. Each possible leakage parts between body and ball, middle flange, body and stem is designed as metal-to-metal contact, when non-metal resilient seats are damaged in a fire or unusual temperature increasing, the upstream medium pressure push the ball into the downstream metal seat lip to cut off the line fluid and prevent the internal leakage due to a secondary metal-to-metal seals. Blow-out Proof Stem Design. The stem is designed with integral T-type shoulder to provide blowout proof effectively. The lower end of stem is terraced and installed from the lower internal part of stem. It is internally inserted as the back seat function to assure stem sealing safety at all pressures. Locking Devices (on request). To prevent wrong operations of valve switch and improper actions by unpredictable, vibration of the line, the valve is equipped with locking hole at the full open and full close position of the valve, and the valve can be locked with a pad lock. Especially this locking device is uniquely advantageous when the valve is installed outdoors or on the production line of flammable petroleum or chemicals.

Handle Indicating Open/Closing Status of Valve. Flat square structure is adopted for the head of valve stem which enables the correct connection with the handle and ensures the handle to be in the same direction with flow hole of the ball. When the handle is horizontal with pipeline of the valve, the valve is in the state of opening, when the handle is vertical with pipeline of valve, valve is in the status of closing.

We are the Outsourcing Broker.

We link our Clients/Buyers, who are valve brand owners, valve manufacturers, and valve stockists To the valve factories, casting factories and forging factories. We monitor the quality control, the progress, the final testing and packing, and the shipment of completed valves to our Clients/Buyers.

Benefits of using Outsourcing Broker

Expedite the Manufacture and Delivery When a shorter delivery leadtime is required, Outsourcing Broker with his good connection can expedite the manufacture of valves, and expedite the valves delivery date. Competitive Cost Cost of labour is very expensive in North America, Europe, Australia and Japan. By outsourcing, Valve Brand Owner and Valve Manufacturer can lower the cost, and sell the valves at a more competitive price. Monitor the Quality Control Outsourcing Broker helps to ensure Quality by witnessing the PMI, pressure tests, etc. If needed by Client, Outsourcing Broker will appoint 3rd Party Inspector for pre-delivery inspection. Monitor and Report the Progress Outsourcing Broker helps the Clients to monitor PMI for Duplex Stainless Steel and the progress of manufacture of valves, and Stainless Steel report the progress periodically. Positive Material Identification (PMI) is our This is good Project Management practice. standard Quality Control practice for Duplex Anonymity of Buyer/Client Stainless Steel and Stainless Steel valves. Often, the Valve Brand Owner and Valve PMI test is done using a portable PMI-XRF Manufacturer do not want to be directly analyzer. This is to ensure correct material communicated by the individual factories. composition, strength, and properties of the steel. Only the Outsourcing Broker knows the detailed contact info of Buyer. Discreet and Confidential!! Easy Management of Outsourcing A big order of a variety of valves needs to be outsourced to many valve factories. Outsourcing Broker ease the burden of managing the numerous valve factories, casting factories and forging factories.
