Titanium Valves

Titanium Valves

African Valve is a recognized Titanium Valves Manufacturer in South Africa, specializing in corrosion-resistant valve solutions for the most aggressive chemical and seawater environments. Engineered using titanium grades like ASTM B381 Grade 2 and Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V), these valves offer unmatched resistance to chlorides, oxidizing acids, and brine solutions. Their lightweight nature combined with high tensile strength makes them ideal for critical flow control applications.

Function & Working

Titanium valves are designed to handle extreme corrosion where standard stainless steel, alloy steel, or duplex materials would degrade rapidly. They regulate, isolate, or direct fluid flow in systems containing acidic, saline, or oxidizing media—ensuring a long-lasting, leak-proof performance in challenging environments. Titanium’s passive oxide film continuously reforms to protect the valve from corrosion.
