By integrating state-of-the-art 3D casting simulation software, we ensure every valve body, disc, and bonnet is engineered for structural integrity, eliminating defects before the first metal is even poured.

Our Core Valve Casting Product Range

We provide comprehensive casting solutions for a wide variety of industrial valves, ensuring tight tolerances and superior surface finishes.

  • Ball Valves: We manufacture single-piece, two-piece, and three-piece ball valve components. Our castings ensure a leak-proof interface and smooth spherical accuracy for high-pressure applications.

  • Gate Valves: Precision-cast bodies and wedges (including Knife Edge Gate Valves) designed to handle abrasive media and ensure a positive shut-off.

  • Globe Valves: High-integrity castings for globe valve bodies and plugs, optimized for precise throttling and flow control.

  • Check Valves: Robust components for Disc, Wafer, and Swing check valves, engineered to prevent backflow in critical pipeline systems.

  • Butterfly & Plug Valves: Lightweight yet durable castings in various alloys to facilitate efficient flow regulation.
