Prototype Metal Engineering Molds & Precise Manufacturing

What are the materials and surface roughness of the water valve?

A: The water valve is made of 316 stainless steel. This stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance because it contains molybdenum, especially in harsh environments such as seawater, chemical industry, and food processing. 316 stainless steel is not only corrosion-resistant, but also has good heat resistance, low-temperature strength and mechanical properties, which enables the water valve to maintain a stable working state in a variety of environments. As for the surface roughness, the processing of the water valve has reached the standard of Ra 1.6, which means that its surface is very smooth, which is not only beautiful, but also reduces the friction coefficient, and improves the service life of the water valve and the fluid transmission efficiency. This fine surface treatment process not only improves the appearance quality of the product, but also ensures that the water valve can still maintain good sealing performance and smooth operation in long-term use.

Why do we recommend 316 stainless steel for precision manufacturing?

First of all, due to its good thermal stability, not affected by temperature, so in CNC machining, turning, milling and these processes, the dimensional accuracy can be guaranteed. Moreover, it has a high surface finish and low roughness, which makes it even better to work with, reducing friction and abrasion, and bringing equipment performance to the next level.

Under high humidity, corrosive environments or chemical exposure, it can ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment. Coupled with its strength and toughness, it can withstand mechanical loads and vibrations without fatigue damage due to prolonged use, which improves the reliability and safety of the equipment and reduces the risk of downtime due to part failure.

Finally, although it is relatively costly, it has a long service life in the long run, reducing the additional cost of frequent part replacements. And, its low maintenance requirements reduce downtime due to repairs and replacement parts, increasing productivity. This further reduces overall operating costs and improves the economic efficiency of the organization.

What finish options do you offer and what are the characteristics of each option?

We offer a wide range of finish options including galvanized, nickel plated, chrome plated, powder coated, painted, anodized, blackened, QPQ (hardened and polished), polished and more. Each of these finishes has its own unique benefits and can be selected as required, and we will also make recommendations.
