Duplex Stainless Steel Ball Valve CB/T3191 With Mill Test Report and 2-Year Warranty
Product Spotlights
As a dedicated manufacturer with over eight years of expertise, Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd. presents its premium Duplex Stainless Steel Ball Valve manufactured strictly under the CB/T3191 standard. Engineered for demanding marine and industrial applications, this valve combines exceptional corrosion resistance with high structural strength, offering a reliable and long-lasting solution for fluid control systems. Each valve is backed by a comprehensive Mill Test Report, providing full traceability of material properties, and comes with a solid 2-Year Warranty, underscoring our commitment to quality and customer confidence.
This valve is designed to excel in environments where standard stainless steels may fail, such as seawater, chlorides, and acidic media. Its duplex structure provides a balanced microstructure offering advantages over both austenitic and ferritic grades.
Core Technical Specifications & Advantages:
- Superior Material Performance: The use of Duplex Stainless Steel (typically Grade 2205) delivers approximately double the yield strength of standard 316L, while maintaining excellent corrosion resistance, particularly against pitting and crevice corrosion.
- Standard Compliance: Manufactured in accordance with CB/T3191, a Chinese national standard for marine valves, ensuring design, material, and testing requirements suitable for shipboard and offshore use.
- Enhanced Sealing & Durability: Utilizes high-performance seat materials like PTFE or reinforced variants, ensuring tight shut-off and extended service life even with abrasive or corrosive fluids.
- Operational Flexibility: Available with various actuation options to suit your control system – from simple manual levers to gear operators or automated pneumatic actuators.
- Full Documentation & Traceability: The included Mill Test Report (MTR) details the chemical composition, mechanical properties, and heat treatment of the raw material, providing verifiable proof of quality and compliance.
- Wide Application Suitability: Ideal for critical applications in shipbuilding, offshore platforms, chemical processing plants, oil & gas pipelines, and power generation where reliability is paramount.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
What is the main advantage of Duplex Stainless Steel over 316L for a ball valve?
Duplex stainless steel offers significantly higher strength (about twice the yield strength) and better resistance to stress corrosion cracking and pitting corrosion, especially in chloride-containing environments like seawater. This leads to a more robust and longer-lasting valve body. -
What does the CB/T3191 standard specify?
CB/T3191 is a Chinese technical standard for "Marine Cast Steel Valves." It covers requirements for design, materials, manufacturing, testing, and marking for valves used on ships and marine structures, ensuring suitability for maritime service conditions. -
What information is included in the Mill Test Report (MTR)?
The MTR is a certificate from the steel mill. It typically includes the material grade, heat number, chemical composition analysis, mechanical property test results (tensile strength, yield strength, elongation), and any applicable heat treatment records, providing full material traceability. -
Does the 2-Year Warranty cover all components?
The warranty generally covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions as specified. It applies to the main valve body, ball, stem, and seats. Specific terms are provided with the product documentation. -
Can this valve be used with actuators for automated control?
Yes. The valve is designed to be compatible with various actuators. We can supply it as a manual valve, or pre-assembled with pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic actuators based on your system requirements. -
Are other end connection standards besides flanged available?
Absolutely. While flanged connections are common for larger sizes, threaded ends (NPT, BSP) are available for smaller sizes. Connections can be manufactured to meet ANSI, DIN, JIS, GB, or other international standards upon request. -
What applications is this valve NOT recommended for?
While highly corrosion-resistant, duplex stainless steel may not be suitable for extremely high-temperature applications beyond its recommended range (e.g., above 250°C depending on seat material) or for media that specifically attack duplex grades. Consultation for specific media is advised. -
How does the ISO9001 certification benefit the customer?
Our ISO9001 certification ensures that our manufacturing processes are systematically controlled and continually improved. This translates to consistent product quality, reliable documentation, and a professional approach to meeting customer specifications and handling orders.
