Inconel Ball Valve
WDL Inconel Ball Valve provides quarter-turn isolation with a direct flow path and tight shutoff for high-temperature chemical lines and steam and hot-gas systems. Connections, trim and operation are selected to the project conditions.
Description
Inconel Ball Valve
WDL Inconel Ball Valve provides quarter-turn isolation with a direct flow path and tight shutoff for process systems that need strength and oxidation resistance in hot or chloride-bearing service. Inconel alloys are used where elevated temperature, oxidation or chloride stress-corrosion cracking limits common stainless steels.
Design Options

Selection Notes
Select the Inconel grade from the temperature, pressure, sulfur level, chlorides and required mechanical strength.
Confirm floating or trunnion design, cavity relief, seat material, fire-safe requirement and bore size.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why select Inconel Alloy for this ball valve?
Inconel alloys are used where elevated temperature, oxidation or chloride stress-corrosion cracking limits common stainless steels. Final suitability depends on the complete process conditions and the selected valve trim.
What information is needed for selection?
Provide the size, pressure rating, medium composition, concentration, temperature, connection standard, operating method and required quantity.
Send the process datasheet to WDL for material review, dimensional confirmation and quotation.
