Metal Safety Shields – 316 Valve

RAMCO Metal Safety Shields with 316 alloys are specially developed for corrosive applications. Since the heat limit for a thermoplastic shield is approximately 450°F (232°C), the use of stainless steel safety shields is required whenever conditions in the line exceed this temperature. Stainless steel “316” contains 16-18% chromium and 10-14% nickel as well as 2-3% molybdenum. This provides superior resistance to pitting and to most types of corrosion, making “316” suitable for applications involving severe corrosive conditions. These safety shields are also available with inner stainless mesh linings and Buna lining for gas applications.
