As a professional manufacturer with ISO9001 certification, Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd. proudly presents our high-performance Stainless Steel API 6D Ball Valve, engineered specifically for demanding marine fuel line applications. Since our establishment in 2016, we have focused on delivering robust and reliable flow control solutions to global markets. This Class 150, LCB body valve with an extended stem is a testament to our commitment to quality and safety in critical industrial and maritime environments.
This valve is designed to meet the rigorous standards required for handling marine fuels, offering superior sealing, durability, and operational safety. Its construction ensures reliable performance in challenging offshore and onshore applications, providing our clients with a dependable component for their critical piping systems.
Detailed Product Features & Technical Specifications:
Our valve incorporates several key design elements that set it apart for marine service:
- API 6D Compliance: Manufactured in accordance with API Specification 6D for pipeline valves, ensuring standardized design, testing, and performance for the oil and gas industry.
- LCB Body Material: The valve body is constructed from LCB (Low Temperature Carbon Steel), which provides excellent toughness and impact resistance at lower temperatures, a critical factor for marine environments.
- Extended Stem Design: The extended stem allows for the installation of insulation materials around the valve body without hindering operation. This is crucial for temperature maintenance and personnel safety in fuel handling systems.
- Stainless Steel Trim: Critical internal components, such as the ball and stem, are made from stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance against marine fuels and salty atmospheres.
- Fire-Safe Option: Available with fire-safe design features, where the seats can provide a secondary metal-to-metal seal in case of a fire, helping to prevent catastrophic fuel release.
- Full Port Design: Minimizes pressure drop across the valve, ensuring efficient fuel flow with minimal turbulence and energy loss in the pipeline.

Benefits for Your Operations:
- Enhanced Safety: The extended stem keeps operators at a safer distance from the valve body, especially when handling hot or insulated lines. The fire-safe option adds an extra layer of protection.
- Long Service Life: The combination of a tough LCB body and corrosion-resistant stainless steel trim ensures durability against the corrosive effects of marine fuels and environments, reducing maintenance frequency.
- Reliable Sealing: High-performance seat materials provide bubble-tight shut-off, preventing fuel leaks and ensuring system integrity and environmental protection.
- Global Compliance: Being API 6D compliant facilitates its acceptance in international projects, particularly in key markets like North America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
- Operational Efficiency: The full-port design and smooth quarter-turn operation allow for quick opening/closing and minimal flow restriction, optimizing fuel transfer operations.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: What is the primary advantage of the extended stem on this ball valve?
A: The extended stem allows for a layer of insulation to be applied to the valve body for thermal management while keeping the operating mechanism accessible and safe for personnel. It is a common requirement for fuel lines to prevent heat loss or maintain fluid temperature. -
Q: Can this valve be used for services other than marine fuel?
A: Yes. While optimized for marine fuel lines, its API 6D design and material selection make it suitable for a range of applications in oil and gas, petrochemical, and other industries handling similar hydrocarbons or corrosive fluids at Class 150 pressure. -
Q: Is the fire-safe feature standard?
A: The fire-safe design is typically an optional feature. It can be specified upon request to meet project requirements for safety-critical applications. -
Q: What flange standards do you support?
A: We commonly supply valves with ASME B16.5 RF flanges. Other standards like ASME B16.47 or EN flanges (e.g., PN16) are available. The specific standard and facing (RF, RTJ) should be specified during ordering. -
Q: Do you provide actuated versions of this valve?
A: Yes. We can equip this valve with pneumatic or electric actuators. The extended stem design is compatible with various actuator mounting kits. Actuator specifications need to be discussed based on your control requirements. -
Q: What documentation accompanies the valve?
A: Each valve is supplied with essential documentation, which may include a Material Test Certificate (MTC) for body and trim materials, a pressure test certificate, and a manual. API 6D-related documentation packages are available. -
Q: What is your lead time for this product?
A: Lead times vary based on order quantity, specific configuration (like fire-safe option), and current production schedule. We maintain efficient production processes to ensure timely delivery to our global clients. -
Q: From which ports do you ship?
A: We primarily ship from major Chinese ports such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Beijing, offering flexible logistics options to destinations worldwide.
