Applications of Valves in the Metallurgical Industry

The metallurgical sector covers iron-making, steel-making, non-ferrous metals smelting, metal forming & fabrication, and advanced materials processing. Drawing on the track record of a representative brand such as U.S. VTON, metallurgical valves are used throughout the entire production chain:

· Non-ferrous smelting (Cu, Al, Pb, Zn, Ni)

· Ferrous smelting (pig iron, steel, ferro-alloys)

· Steel-making—the backbone of the industry, supplying construction, transport, aerospace, machinery, etc.

· Non-ferrous and steel rolling & finishing lines

· Valves for metallurgical plants are specified for:

· Corrosion resistance

· High-temperature resistance

· Wear resistance

· Reliable sealing & high-pressure rating

· Operational reliability, durability and adaptability
