Valve components material for marine environments

HI,

what is the best material for valve components (body, disk , seat, stem) for marine/sea water environment.

Any reference/spec/standard I can refer to when making the selection.

Thank you

  • Hi John, Thanks for the question. I am not a Marine Engineer however in my work with Haystack and various disciplines dealing with Naval applications the spec I am most familiar with is MIL-V-1189. This spec outlines materials for various valve components. Feel free to reach out directly if I can provide further info. I have a .pdf of the spec. david.agnew@ihsmarkit.com
