10. General Notes

  1. Non-rotating stem tip design prevents seat scoring, galling, and wear during seating, extending valve lifecycle.
  2. Screwed bonnet designs include a safety lock pin to prevent accidental bonnet loosening under line pressure.
  3. Needle valves are ideal for pressure gauge isolation, sampling systems, chemical dosing, and hydraulic instrumentation.
  4. Panel mount nuts permit robust mounting onto control panels, manifolds, or test benches.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which standards does the Needle Valve comply with?

The Needle Valve is designed, manufactured, and tested in accordance with ASME B16.34 / BS 4359 / MSS SP-99. Compliance documentation and Material Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1) are provided with every order.

What materials of construction are available for the Needle Valve?

Standard construction is Forged Carbon Steel A105 / Forged Stainless Steel SS316 F316 / Barstock SS316. Alternative and upgraded grades -- Duplex, Super Duplex, Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy, and NACE MR0175 trims for sour service -- are available on request.

What sizes and pressure ratings does the Needle Valve cover?

It is offered in DN6 (1/8") to DN25 (1") with Class 1500# / 3000# / 6000# / 10000# (up to 700 bar / 10,000 psi working pressure). End connections include flanged (RF / RTJ), butt-weld, socket-weld, and screwed ends as per specification.

Can Supreme Valves supply the Needle Valve for export to Saudi Arabia and the Middle East?

Yes. Supreme Valves India is an established exporter of industrial valves to Saudi Arabia (KSA), the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, and across the Gulf. We provide sea-worthy export packing, EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certification, certificate of origin, and support for SABER / SASO conformity on KSA shipments.

What testing and certification is provided with the Needle Valve?

Every valve undergoes hydrostatic shell and seat testing per API 598 / ISO 5208. Documentation includes EN 10204 3.1 MTC (3.2 on request), NDT reports, and fire-safe (API 607) or NACE MR0175 certification where applicable. Third-party inspection by TÜV, SGS, Bureau Veritas, or Lloyd's Register can be arranged.

What is the minimum order quantity and lead time for the Needle Valve?

Order quantities are flexible -- from single units for stocked items to bulk volumes for project requirements. Lead time depends on size, material, and quantity; please contact our team with your specification for a firm delivery schedule and quotation.
