Detailed Product Features & Technical Advantages:
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: Fabricated from premium 316L stainless steel, the disc offers exceptional resistance to a wide range of corrosive media, including chlorides, acids, and alkalis, making it ideal for chemical processing, marine, and water treatment applications.
- Precision Engineering for GB/T3036 Standard: The disc is meticulously machined to comply with the dimensional and tolerance requirements of the Chinese GB/T3036 standard for wafer butterfly valves, ensuring perfect fit and function within compatible valve bodies.
- Optimized with EPDM Seal Compatibility: Designed specifically to work with an EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) seat seal, the disc profile ensures a tight, bubble-tight shut-off. EPDM provides excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, and a broad temperature range (-40°C to +120°C).
- Enhanced Flow Characteristics: The disc's aerodynamic design minimizes turbulence and pressure drop across the valve when in the open position, promoting efficient flow and reducing energy consumption in pumping systems.
- Rigorous Quality Assurance: Every disc undergoes multiple inspection stages, including dimensional checks, material verification, and surface finish assessment, backed by our ISO9001 quality management system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q1: Is this disc compatible with valve brands other than those strictly following GB/T3036?
A1: While designed to the GB/T3036 standard, the disc's dimensions are generally interchangeable with many international wafer butterfly valve designs of equivalent pressure ratings (like PN16/Class 150). We recommend providing your specific valve model or detailed drawings for compatibility confirmation.
Q2: Can you provide the disc with a different seal material instead of EPDM?
A2: Yes. Although configured for EPDM, we can customize the disc profile or edge preparation to be compatible with other elastomers like NBR (Nitrile), Viton® (FKM), or Silicone based on your application's chemical and temperature needs.
Q3: What is the main advantage of 316L over 304 or 316 stainless steel for this disc?
A3: 316L has a lower maximum carbon content, which enhances its resistance to sensitization (carbide precipitation) during welding or high-temperature service. This makes it particularly suitable for applications involving welding the valve into pipelines or for use in highly corrosive environments where intergranular corrosion is a concern.
Q4: Do you offer these discs for higher pressure classes, like PN25 or PN40?
A4: Yes, we can manufacture discs designed for higher pressure ratings. This typically involves adjustments to thickness and structural design. Please specify your required pressure class (PN/Class) and valve size for a customized quotation.
Q5: What surface finish options are available, and how do they affect performance?
A5: Standard finish is a mechanical polish. A smoother finish (e.g., electropolishing) can be requested, which further improves corrosion resistance, reduces particle adhesion, and can enhance seal life by providing a smoother sealing surface.
Q6: What is your typical lead time for standard sizes, and do you hold stock?
A6: Lead times vary based on order quantity and current production schedule. For standard DN50-DN300 sizes, typical lead time is 4-6 weeks. We maintain limited stock for popular sizes; please inquire for specific availability.
Q7: Can you provide material test certificates for the 316L stainless steel?
A7: Yes. We can provide Mill Test Certificates (MTCs) or material certification from our suppliers upon request, verifying the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the raw material used.
Q8: What packaging do you use to prevent damage during shipping?
A8: Each disc is individually protected with anti-corrosive paper or plastic and securely packed in a wooden crate or heavy-duty carton with internal bracing to prevent movement and impact damage during transit, ensuring it arrives in perfect condition.
