What is a Cast Iron Ball Valve?

A Cast Iron Ball Valve is a quarter-turn shut-off valve made from grey cast iron (GG20/GG25) or ductile iron (GJS400). It is designed for use in non-corrosive media like water, air, or oil, typically in pressure ranges up to 16 bar.

They are widely used in:

  • Building water networks
  • HVAC hot/cold water systems
  • Agricultural pipelines
  • Fire fighting systems
  • Industrial utilities and ETP/STP plants

Applications of Cast Iron Ball Valves

  1. Water pipelines (cold/hot) in buildings
  2. HVAC systems and district cooling/heating
  3. Fire fighting water distribution
  4. Irrigation, agriculture & horticulture
  5. Oil & fuel lines (non-corrosive only)
  6. Air lines and industrial utilities
  7. Effluent & sewage treatment plants
  8. Pump isolation valves

Installation & Maintenance Tips

  • Use flat gaskets and align flange faces during installation
  • Avoid using in acidic or salt-laden water without coating
  • Ensure proper torque tightening of flange bolts
  • Operate the valve periodically to avoid seat sticking
  • Use gear-operated models for larger sizes (6” and above)

FAQs

Not recommended. For aggressive or corrosive media, choose SS or CPVC valves.

Typically up to 120°C, depending on seat material and media.

Only for low-pressure saturated steam, and with graphite packing. Otherwise, use carbon steel.

Yes. We offer ISO 5211 mounting pads for actuator-ready DI valves.
