What are the advantages of brass valves?

Now there are many kinds of materials for making valves. Brass valves, stainless steel valves, bronze valves, iron valves and other valves have their own advantages and are suitable for different locations and places. What are the advantages of the valves made of Detson brass?
1、 Simple manufacturing process: As the casting material of general valves, brass has low hardness, and the operation steps for manufacturing brass valves are simpler than other types of valves such as stainless steel valves and bronze valves.
2、 Good mechanical properties: Brass, also known as copper zinc alloy, has good mechanical properties, and the price of brass is cheaper than other materials such as stainless steel, and it has always been popular because of its good sealing effect.

3、 Wide scope of application: Brass valve is the most widely used valve, which is not only suitable for medium and low pressure, but also for high pressure. The structural length of brass valve is large, and the fluid resistance is large, so the sealing is reliable during long-term operation. In addition, the brass valve is generally designed with bellows seal, which completely eliminates the disadvantage of quick aging and leakage of ordinary valve stem packing seal. It not only improves the energy efficiency, increases the safety of production equipment, reduces maintenance costs and frequent maintenance, but also provides a clean and safe working environment.
4、 Good wear resistance: when brass valves are opened and closed, the friction between the valve clack and the sealing surface of the valve body is smaller than that of valves made of other materials, so the wear resistance is good, the depreciation rate is low, and the service life is higher. The above are the advantages of valves made of brass. Valves made of different materials have their own advantages. Only by understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each type of valve can you choose the right valve.
