    Structure and Application Scenarios                                                                                                                                                           

• Product material :

All 316L stainless steel pressure-bearing components—valve body, valve stem, front and rear ferrules, panel nuts, and packing gland—are all made of 316L austenitic stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to chloride‑ion corrosion and intergranular corrosion, making them well suited for demanding applications in the chemical, marine, and natural gas industries.

• Product Structure:

Integrated precision forging and a compact forged structure ensure smooth flow paths with no dead zones, providing stable pressure resistance—ideal for applications such as instrument sampling, pressure control, and process protection.

• Application scenarios:

Petrochemical industry: instrument sampling lines, pressure control systems, and process auxiliary pipelines.

Natural gas   / CNG: High-pressure instrument branch lines, gas monitoring, and auxiliary valves for pressure regulating stations.

Power Metallurgy: High-Temperature, High-Pressure Fluid Monitoring, Instrumentation Protection, and Sampling Loops.

General Industry: Corrosive Media, High-Purity Gases, Hydraulics   / Pneumatic control system.

01. Product Features

Category

Product Feature Description

Performance

Low operating torque ensures convenient, effortless manual operation.

Straight-through valves allow flow in both directions.

The medium in three-way ball valves and angle ball valves can only enter through the bottom port.

Structure

The handle indicates the flow direction of the medium.

Equipped with handle limit function

Optional equipment

Optional pneumatic or electric actuators are available.

Test

Each valve is subjected to a leak‑tightness test using nitrogen or compressed air at its rated working pressure, with the requirement that no visible leakage be detected.
