Our valves are designed and manufactured in accordance with international standards such as API, ISO, DIN, EN, and BS. We can also customize products based on client specifications.
Yes, we offer ball valves and high-performance butterfly valves with fire-safe designs. Valves certified to API 607 and API 6FA are also available upon request.
Yes, we can supply valves in compliance with NACE MR0175, NACE MR0103, and ISO 15156. Material hardness and chemical composition are strictly controlled according to these standards.
The handwheel turns the stem, which in turn moves the gate up or down inside the valve body without changing the external height of the stem.
The handwheel lifts the stem and gate together, providing a visual indication of whether the valve is open or closed.
DBB (Double Block and Bleed): Two single piston-effect seats.
DIB-I (Double Isolation and Bleed Type I): Two double piston-effect seats.
DIB-II (Double Isolation and Bleed Type II): One double piston-effect seat and one single piston-effect seat.
OS&Y stands for Outside Screw and Yoke. This design places the threaded stem outside the valve body, with the yoke supporting the stem. It allows users to visually verify whether the valve is open or closed by observing the stem's position.
OS&Y gate valves are commonly used in fire protection systems, including sprinklers, hydrants, and standpipes, due to their reliability and clear open/close indication.
CRA stands for Corrosion Allowance. In piping design, this refers to an added safety thickness on pressure-containing parts to compensate for corrosion over the valve's service life.
Typically applied to carbon steel, CRA values like 1.5 mm, 3 mm, or 6 mm are added on top of standard wall thicknesses according to ASME B16.34 or API 600.
A valve in which the stem does not move vertically but rotates internally to raise or lower the gate. This design is ideal for installations with limited vertical space.
Use a rising stem valve for above-ground applications where visibility and ease of maintenance are important.
Use a non-rising stem valve for underground or space-limited installations.
The choice between rising stem and non-rising stem gate valves depends on your specific application needs. For clear valve status indication and easy maintenance, go with a rising stem valve. For compact installations, a non-rising stem valve is the better option.
For forged small-size valves not over 2 inches, the lead time is 4-7 weeks. For valves with forgings or castings in stock, we can deliver within 4 weeks.
For newly manufactured valves, the standard lead time is typically 7 to 10 weeks. For expedited orders, special designs, or large quantities, please contact us directly to confirm the lead time.
Yes, all our valves are 100% tested before shipment. An EN 10204 3.1 certificate and inspection report are provided free of charge as standard documents with every valve.
Yes, 3.2 certificates are available at an additional cost. We work with reputable third-party inspection agencies (TPI) such as BV, TÜV, SGS, or LR, which will inspect the valves and issue signed certificates provided with the shipment.
All our products come with a 24-month warranty from the shipping date at no additional cost. If any issues arise due to manufacturing quality within this period, Baltic will provide full after-sales support and service.
Our standard quotation is valid for 30 days from the date of issue. For long-term cooperative partners, we will lock the quoted price for 6 months, even if there is a small fluctuation in raw material prices. For large, long-term orders, we will sign a fixed-price agreement to avoid any temporary price increases.
Yes, we welcome you to order samples for testing before placing bulk orders. The sample fee is based on the product model and quantity, and we will refund 100% of the sample fee when you place a formal bulk order that meets the minimum quantity requirement. Sample delivery time is 1-3 working days for in-stock models.
Our standard delivery terms are Ex-Works (EXW) or FOB/FCA Shanghai/Ningbo port. If needed, we also support CFR/CIF terms.
We primarily use sea freight and rail transportation (to Europe), but express (DHL, FedEx) or air freight shipping can also be arranged based on customer requirements.
You can adjust order details free of charge if you inform us within 24 hours of order placement and production has not yet started. If production has already started, we will communicate with you to find the optimal solution to minimize your losses, based on the production progress.
Yes, we can arrange full logistics transportation on your behalf. We have long-term cooperative partnerships with top global logistics providers, including Maersk and COSCO for sea freight, and DHL and FedEx for air freight and express. We can provide the most cost-effective and reliable logistics solutions for you, based on your destination and time requirements.
