Advantages of stainless steel casting for valve bodies Durability Stainless steel castings produce reliable and durable valve bodies. Stainless steel 316 valve bodies can be used at any temperature and will not cause any quality problems whether operating at high or low temperatures. If a company is purchasing a high-quality valve body, cast stainless steel can guarantee good quality over time. High pressure resistance When you need a valve body that operates under high strain, cast stainless steel is the best choice. Because cast stainless steel is strong and durable, valve bodies made of this material can withstand pressures that would crack or break a valve body made of other materials. For very high pressures, a cast stainless steel valve body may be the only component that can withstand the pressure without damage. No corrosion Valve bodies made by the investment casting process for stainless steel are less likely to rust or corrode. This makes stainless steel valve bodies a bette

Stainless Steel Casting of Valve Body

The valve body , also known as the housing, is the main component of the valve. It is the main element of the valve assembly because it is the frame that holds everything together. Most valve bodies are cast in stainless steel. Valve bodies made of stainless steel are particularly tough and corrosion resistant, making them ideal for high pressure and high temperature applications. The 316 stainless steel casting of the valve body is more resistant to corrosion because it contains more nickel and also contains molybdenum. This combination of iron, nickel and molybdenum makes the valve particularly resistant to chlorides and is very useful in marine environments.     Investment casting process YOGEM's valve bodies  are produced using a stainless steel investment casting process. Compared to sand casting, investment casting of stainless steel valve bodies ensures higher dimensional accuracy, smoother surface finish and fewer casting defects. The following are the main steps of investm

Why is cast iron best suited for the manufacturing of pumps?

Cast iron is preferred for various purposes including manufacturing of a range of pumps. It is best suitable for centrifugal pumps and sump pumps. Cast iron acquires some physical and mechanical properties that make it suitable for pump manufacturing. For high temperature applications, a suitable metal is chosen for the manufacturing of pumps based on three factors. Advantages of Casting: 1. Corrosion resistance 2. Maximum temperature limit 3. Coefficient of thermal expansion 1. Corrosion resistance: A gradual increase in temperature makes the liquid to turn more corrosive. Cast iron has a relatively fair resistance to corrosion. Therefore, cast iron is preferred for pumps employed in high temperature applications. 2. Maximum temperature limit: When there is a sudden fluctuation in the temperature, the metal is likely to experience a thermal shock. This could happen under situations like pouring hot oil into a cold pump for start-up or spraying cold water on a hot pump during cleaning.
