Valve seal (ring) material usage range comparison table

Valve seal (ring) material usage range comparison table
The selection of valve sealing material is determined according to the operating conditions of the valve, such as:

marine valve seat

marine valve seat

pipeline medium, temperature range (high and low temperature), pressure, and internal structure of the valve. For different occasions, the selected seals are also different. Valve seals can generally be divided into two categories, soft seals and hard seals. Users should have a detailed understanding of their codes, operating temperature, pressure, medium and other parameters.

Comparison table of valve sealing material usage range:
