Metal seal Ball Valve sealing surface hardening technique

Metal seal Ball valve sealing surface hardening techniques

First, Overview
High-viscosity fluids in power plants , petrochemical systems , coal chemical industry , with dust mixed fluid and solid granular , highly corrosive fluid medium and so on required the ball valve should be metal seal , so the choice of a suitable metal hard sealing ball valve “ball and seat”  hardening process is very important.

Second, the usual hardening process are the following :

( 1 ) sphere surfacing deposit weld alloy , hardness usually up to 30HRC or more, spheres  surfacing process is complex, low productivity, and a large area of ​​surface welding easy to make parts deformation , as a reslut, currently use of the sphere surface hardening process become less .
