Product Overview
Welcome to our website. Here, we introduce our 316L stainless steel ball valve in detail. This high-quality valve is made from 316L stainless steel. It is designed for demanding fluid control applications. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature performance, and stable operating reliability.
316L Stainless Steel Material Characteristics
- Corrosion Resistance
– 316L stainless steel contains more molybdenum. This provides superior corrosion resistance, especially in chloride environments and marine climates. It effectively resists pitting, crevice corrosion, and general corrosion. It is suitable for harsh working environments.
- Excellent High-Temperature Performance
– 316L stainless steel maintains stable performance at higher temperatures. It is suitable for a wide range of high-temperature environments. Even under extreme thermal conditions, the valve’s reliability and durability are ensured.
- High Strength and Toughness
– This material has excellent mechanical strength and toughness. It can withstand greater pressure and impact. It ensures the valve’s stability and durability in complex working conditions.
- Low Carbon Characteristics
– 316L stainless steel has a low carbon content, which reduces carbide precipitation. This improves the material’s corrosion and high-temperature resistance, especially in welding applications.
Differences Between 316L and 316 Stainless Steel
- Chemical Composition
– 316L stainless steel has a carbon content of up to 0.03%. In contrast, 316 stainless steel has a carbon content higher than 0.08%.
- Corrosion Resistance
– The lower carbon content of 316L enhances its resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding. This makes 316L more resistant to corrosion compared to 316.
- Price
– 316L stainless steel is usually more expensive due to higher processing technology and material costs.
Working Conditions
- Chemical Industry
– The valve performs well in transporting and controlling chemical media. It is suitable for corrosive media such as strong acids and strong alkalis.
- Marine Engineering
– It is ideal for pipeline systems in marine environments and effectively resists seawater erosion.
- Medical Field
– The valve meets strict hygiene and corrosion resistance standards. It is widely used in fluid control for medical equipment and pharmaceutical processes.
- Food Industry
– It is suitable for controlling media in high-salt, high-acid, or high-temperature food processing, meeting food safety standards.
Use Medium
- Various Corrosive Liquids
– This includes strong acids such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and nitric acid, as well as strong alkaline solutions like sodium hydroxide.
- Organic Solvents
– Such as alcohols, ketones, and esters.
- Brine and Seawater
- High-Temperature Steam and Gas
