What is a DIN Cast Iron Flanged Ball Valve PN16?

A DIN Cast Iron Flanged Ball Valve PN16 is a quarter-turn isolation valve manufactured as per
DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) standards, featuring a cast iron body with flanged end connections
and a pressure rating of PN16 (16 bar).

The valve uses a precision-machined ball with a through bore, which rotates 90 degrees to start or stop
the flow of media. When fully open, the flow path is straight, resulting in minimal pressure drop.
When closed, the valve provides tight shut-off, making it ideal for on/off service in industrial pipelines.

DIN flanged ball valves are preferred in Indian industries due to their compatibility with
DIN PN10 / PN16 piping systems, ease of installation, standardized dimensions, and strong availability
of spares.

Why DIN PN16 Ball Valves Are Widely Used in India

In India, most municipal, industrial, and infrastructure piping systems follow DIN or IS standards.
The PN16 pressure class is especially popular because it offers an optimal balance between
pressure handling capability and cost.

• Suitable for working pressures up to 16 bar
• Compatible with DIN PN16 flanges used across India
• Cost-effective alternative to forged steel valves
• Easy availability of gaskets, bolts, and spares
• Long operational life in Indian climatic conditions

Because of these advantages, DIN Cast Iron Flanged Ball Valves PN16 are extensively used in
government projects, private industrial plants, and export-oriented manufacturing units.

Product Construction & Design Details

Body

The valve body is manufactured from high-grade Cast Iron (GG25 / FG260), offering excellent
mechanical strength, vibration resistance, and durability. Cast iron is particularly suitable for
water, air, steam (low pressure), and non-corrosive fluid applications.

Ball

The internal ball is made from Stainless Steel (SS304 / SS316) or hard chrome-plated carbon steel,
ensuring corrosion resistance, smooth operation, and long sealing life.

Seats

The valve is fitted with PTFE / RPTFE seats, which provide bubble-tight shut-off, low torque operation,
and excellent chemical compatibility.

Stem

The stem is blow-out proof design, usually made from stainless steel, ensuring operator safety
and preventing accidental ejection under pressure.

End Connections

Flanged ends are drilled as per DIN PN16 standards, allowing direct installation into standard
DIN pipelines without modification.
