High-Pressure Systems

The superior tensile strength of the GGG50 body ensures our pn16 butterfly valve maintains structural integrity under high pressure, preventing deformation and guaranteeing reliable actuation without leakage.

Underground & Buried Service

A ductile cast iron butterfly valve is inherently resistant to soil stress and external loads. Combined with a thick fusion-bonded epoxy coating, it's the premier choice for long-life, maintenance-free buried installations.

Dead-End Service

The full-rated threaded lugs allow for downstream pipeline maintenance while the valve holds full upstream pressure. This makes our tapped lug butterfly valve essential for sectional isolation and safe servicing.

Large Diameter Pipelines

Ductile iron is the material of choice for casting large, robust, and cost-effective valve bodies. Our manufacturing capability for large diameter butterfly valve models ensures structural strength for municipal mains and industrial intakes.

The combination of a strong ductile iron body with a fully isolated liner creates an excellent barrier. An epdm lined butterfly valve offers a highly effective and economical solution for treated water and neutral chemical applications.

Frequent Actuation Stress

The robust body and heavy-duty stem design of our valves are engineered to withstand the high torque and cyclical stress from frequent automation. The square head valve stem provides a secure, non-slip connection for the actuator.

The OEM's Choice: Engineering a Flawless Foundation for Global Systems

For an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), the quality of their final product is the sum of its parts. For Han-Kyul Water Solutions, a premier South Korean builder of containerized water purification skids, every integrated component must be a zero-failure foundation, because their brand reputation ships with every unit.

Building Systems, Not Just Assembling Parts
Han-Kyul exports sophisticated, automated water treatment systems worldwide. "Our clients in different regions specify different control systems and actuators. Our job is to deliver a reliable, integrated skid," explains Kim Min-jun (김민준), Han-Kyul's Lead Integration Engineer. "The butterfly valve body is our chosen foundation for flow control. If the valve's dimensions are off, or its material is unstable, our entire automation and assembly process is compromised."

Han-Kyul needed a bare-stem lug butterfly valve supplier who could provide not just a part, but a guarantee of mechanical and material perfection, ready for seamless integration with any actuator they chose.

The Challenge

The "Bare Stem Nightmare": Dimensional Inconsistency and Material Instability
Mr. Kim's team faced critical issues with previous suppliers. "We were fighting a battle on two fronts," he recalls. "First, the flange compatibility. A valve advertised as 'multi-standard' would cause alignment issues with JIS flanges on one project, and ANSI on another. Second, and more critical, were the bare stem dimensions. An inconsistent square drive on the stem head meant our actuators wouldn't mount correctly, causing production delays and potential shearing failure in the field. It was an integrator's nightmare."

The Solution: Engineering for Perfect Integration and Absolute Reliability

We understood that for an OEM like Han-Kyul, a valve is not a final product but a critical raw component. Our solution was a demonstration of our deep manufacturing control, governed by our ISO 9001 certified processes: Our EN-GJS-500-7 (GGG50) Ductile Iron Bare-Stem Lug Butterfly Valve.

Material Stability: Ferritizing Anneal for Dimensional Integrity

To ensure the valve body is a stable, reliable foundation, our EN-GJS-500-7 castings undergo a mandatory **ferritizing annealing heat treatment**. By slow-cooling the castings through the ~730°C (1350°F) eutectoid range, we ensure the breakdown of brittle cementite into a **fully ferritic microstructure**. **Why is this critical for an OEM?** This process eliminates internal stresses and maximizes impact toughness, guaranteeing that the valve body's dimensions will remain stable during their assembly process and throughout its operational life, preventing delayed-onset distortions or failures.

True Multi-Standard Compatibility by Design, Not by Chance

We solve the flange compatibility issue through precision machining. Instead of a loose "universal" design, our lug bodies are CNC-machined to a precise Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) that represents the **mathematical median of ANSI 150, DIN PN16, and JIS 10K standards**. With a machining tolerance of ±0.2mm on hole positions, we guarantee interference-free bolt alignment across all major international standards, a crucial feature for a global exporter like Han-Kyul.

Bi-Directional, Zero-Leak Seal: The Science of Interference Fit

Our promise of bi-directional zero-leakage in a centric design comes from obsessive control over the disc and seat geometry. The spherical profile of the disc edge is CNC-machined to a tolerance of **±0.05mm**. The EPDM seat is molded with a precisely corresponding profile to create a **perfectly uniform 360-degree interference fit**. This calculated compression ensures that line pressure, from either direction, only serves to further energize the seal against the disc, guaranteeing a bubble-tight shutoff every time.

The Actuator Interface: Precision Where It Matters Most

For a bare-stem valve, the stem head is the most critical interface. We treat it as a precision-machined component. The square drive is milled to **ISO 5211 standards with a dimensional tolerance of ±0.1mm**. Whether Han-Kyul needs a square head for a pneumatic actuator, or a D-drive (flat-round) for an electric one, each is machined with the same exacting precision. This guarantees a perfect, no-slop fit with their chosen actuator, eliminating the risk of connection failure and ensuring accurate flow control.

"이 밸브는 단순한 부품이 아닙니다. 우리 시스템의 신뢰할 수 있는 기반입니다. 가공 정밀도와 소재의 안정성 덕분에, 우리는 어떤 구동기를 사용하든지 완벽한 통합을 확신할 수 있습니다."
Kim Min-jun, Lead Integration Engineer

Ductile Iron Valve - Technical Questions

Why choose a Ductile Iron (GGG50) body over standard Cast Iron (GG25)?

The primary advantage is superior strength and ductility. Unlike the brittle flake graphite in cast iron, the spheroidal graphite in GGG50 ductile iron allows it to bend and deform under stress rather than fracturing. This makes it far more resistant to system pressures, physical impacts, and water hammer, ensuring higher safety and a longer service life in critical applications like water mains and fire protection systems.

Are the lug threads strong enough for high-torque actuation and repeated use?

Absolutely. The inherent toughness of ductile iron ensures the tapped lugs are exceptionally robust. They are designed to withstand the high installation torques and cyclical loads from pneumatic or electric actuators without stripping. Every lug undergoes precision tapping and go/no-go gauge inspection to guarantee thread integrity, ensuring reliable dead-end service and secure mounting for the valve's entire lifespan.

Is this valve suitable for underground or buried installations?

Yes, it is the ideal choice for buried service. Its suitability comes from two key features: 1) The ductile iron body has excellent resistance to soil stress and ground shifting. 2) We apply a thick, 250-micron minimum fusion bonded epoxy (FBE) coating, which provides a durable, holiday-free barrier against soil corrosion and moisture. This combination ensures long-term, maintenance-free reliability.

What makes this valve suitable for both water treatment and general industrial use?

Its versatility comes from a combination of a robust base and customizable internals. The epoxy coated ductile iron body provides a strong, economical, and well-protected foundation. We then match the wetted parts to your specific media. A standard EPDM seat is perfect for water, while options like NBR, Viton®, or PTFE seats, paired with Stainless Steel or Duplex discs, can handle a wide range of chemicals and temperatures.

How does the bare stem design integrate with my automation system?

Integration is seamless. The valve is equipped with a top flange that is fully compliant with the ISO 5211 standard, ensuring universal compatibility with standard electric and pneumatic actuators. The robust stem, available with a square head or keyed drive, provides a secure, non-slip connection for reliable torque transmission. Please request our torque chart to correctly size your actuator, ensuring a safety factor of at least 30%.
