When inquiring about the material of a valve, it is necessary to specify this based on the type of valve. For example: 1. Butterfly valves: The materials involved generally include the valve body, valve disc, valve seat (sealing element), etc； II. Ball valve: valve body, valve core, seal (usually not much questioned), etc.; III. Gate valve: valve body, gate plate, valve seat, etc ； IV: Globe valve: Valve body, valve seat, etc ； .... etc. In the future, when it comes to selecting products, suppliers will ask you questions; just answer whatever they ask, and then you’ll be very clear about it. I work in valve technology, so feel free to reach out if you have any questions – QQ: 120519927
Yes, the materials of a valve include those of the valve body, valve disc, valve stem, sealing surfaces, etc. When there is a lining, the material of that lining must be specified clearly. A valve specification sheet should be prepared, and this sheet should further specify materials such as the packing
The materials for valve seals include: the valve body, valve cover, valve stem, disc, disc seal, seat seal, copper sleeve, bracket, handwheel, packing gland, packing, and valve cover gasket, among others
Everything said upstairs is correct. It generally refers to the valve body; if you need the valve core and seat to be made of different materials, you can mention this to the manufacturer when placing the order.
The material of the valve can be indicated by its model number; generally, however, only the material of the valve body is mentioned.
Valve body, seal, valve disc, valve seat
In the general design industry, when referring to the material of a valve, it means the material of the valve body; some more detailed specifications even indicate the materials of other parts as well!

It seems that the material of the valve body and the valve seat can be determined from the paint color of the valve.
