PP pinch valve, as the name suggests, is a pinch valve of PP shell material. The main advantage of this valve is that the valve body is made of pp plastic, so the valve body is lighter and can be installed on the suspended pipe. PP material has the characteristics of acid and alkali resistance […]
Basket strainers are essential pipeline pre-filtration equipment widely used in chemical processing, water treatment, petroleum, food & beverage, pharmaceutical and general manufacturing. Industrial fluid pipelines are critical to stable production, yet process water, oil and chemical media often carry sediment, rust, solid particles and material agglomerates. These tiny contaminants cause pump abrasion, valve blockage, heat exchanger […]
This guide explains the basic setup steps for a simplex basket strainer. It covers prep work, safe fitting, pressure checks, common mistakes, and when duplex units need extra setup care. Lianke Valve makes industrial strainers and valves for harsh flow systems. Its products support chemical, mining, power, food, paper, and wastewater lines that need strong […]
Choosing the wrong metal for a seawater pipeline is an expensive mistake. It leads to early valve failure, unplanned shutdowns, and high repair costs. Two of the most common materials used in marine and desalination systems are 316 stainless steel and Duplex 2205. Both are good metals — but they perform very differently in saltwater […]
A fluorine lined valve acts as a primary barrier against corrosive process fluids. However, even small flaws in the lining can lead to severe system damage or leaks, often called “holidays or pinholes.” These defects, often microscopic gaps from manufacturing, mechanical stress, or thermal cycling, compromise the valve’s structural integrity. By explaining the standard methods […]
In industrial piping systems, a pinch valve rubber sleeve handles abrasive slurries and corrosive chemicals. Since it is the only component that has direct contact with the process media, it often wears out within the valve. On the outside, the housing remains protected. However, it is not noticeable that the sleeve has undergone constant mechanical […]
In industrial flow control, a pinch valve relies on its pinch valve rubber sleeve. There are instances in which the machinery may lead to pinch valve sleeve failure, and the rubber needs to be replaced. Many operators settle for standard OEM replacements. However, these replacements may not be optimized for the harsh conditions. This guide […]
EPDM rubber (short for ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a synthetic rubber known for its durability and resistance to harsh conditions. Developed in the 1960s, it’s made from ethylene, propylene, and diene monomers. These properties make it tough enough to handle extreme environments without deforming like natural rubber. EPDM rubber is widely used in construction, […]
Stainless Steel Ball valves are essential parts of many industrial operations. And so, making sure that these valves are always working properly is integral to ensure that systems don’t fail. Proper maintenance is easy — It requires small routine checkups as well as minimal labor. In turn, this can lower the chances of operational systems […]
When valves sustain damage, the consequences can be significant, impacting both operational efficiency and safety within fluid handling systems. Valves play a critical role in controlling the flow of fluids such as water, gases, chemicals, and more in various industrial and commercial applications. Understanding what happens when valves are damaged helps highlight the importance of […]
