We can help you find a Chinese manufacturer specializing in brass valves. Have the product manufactured to your specifications at rates lower than you would find domestically. We work directly with the manufacturer to ensure that every batch meets your quality expectations.

Typical materials: CW617N and various other brass grades

Brass is versatile, durable, and long-lasting. It is resistant to corrosion and can withstand extreme temperatures.

The most commonly used brass is the CW617N, which is an alloy of nickel-plated brass.

Brass valves are popular because:

• They have good resistance to corrosion
• They have a high machinability rating
• They are excellent for hot forming
• They are extremely suitable for brazing and soldering

Material composition:

• 58% copper
• 2% lead additive
• 0.3% maximum iron
• 0.7% maximum impurities
• Remaining zinc

Hot-working temperature range: 650-775°C (1202-1427°F)

Tensile strength: 380 MPa (55 ksi)

Common MOQ: 100 to 10,000 pcs

The MOQ for common or standardized parts is generally higher. Even though manufacturers may be flexible about the MOQs, buyers are advised to be reasonable about the numbers.

Manufacturing methods: Hot forged and CNC machining

• The manufacturer produces the components using the hot forging process. This process improves ductility, mechanical characteristics, and surface appearance.
• The components are then CNC machined to reshape them as per the original design and the client’s specification.
• The manufacturer ensures precision with the components and takes special care for the intricate parts.

Manufacturing cluster area: Ningbo (Zhejiang province)

Ningbo is a city in the northeast Zhejiang province of China. It is very well known for the port of Ningbo-Zhoushan, one of the busiest in the world in terms of cargo tonnage.

Ningbo is an important industrial hub in China. Some of the major industries are textiles, garments, home electric appliances, stationery, plastic machines, auto parts, and high-end mold sectors.

The city is also one of the major production bases of home electric appliances in China. Ningbo has over 3,000 home electrical appliance manufacturers and 10,000 factories that produce electrical appliances parts.

Ningbo is also the leading plastic machine manufacturer in the world and has been aptly nicknamed the ‘Home of Plastic Machine.’ Nearly half of all the plastic machines in the world are produced in this city. There are nearly 130 plastic machine manufacturers in the city.

The automobile, stationery, and mold industries are also some of the important industries in Ningbo. It is a major auto parts production center in China, with over 2,300 manufacturers.

Application: Food and beverage industry, plumbing and hydraulics

Valves are an important component of the operation and production framework of many industries. Brass valves are immensely popular because they are corrosion resistant, durable, and have a long service life.

Power generation, food manufacturing, oil processing, and chemical and plastic manufacturing are some industrial processes that use valves.

Valves are also used in both the household and many commercial settings. Valves are used in plumbing and hydraulics. Valves are also used in household appliances like gas control valves in cookers and small valves fitted in washing machines.

The food and beverage industry, construction, and manufacturing are among some of the industries that use valves extensively.

Common issues: Dimensional control and surface finish

Our in-process quality checks ensure that your order meets your quality expectations. This includes a smooth finish and components made to your exact specifications.

Quality Control

• CMM inspection to test the accuracy of the manufactured components
• Assess jigs and fixtures to replicate manufactured products with consistent quality
