Pressure Vessel Castings (Valves, Pumps, Compressors)

Three words — We have experience. We have produced steel castings and iron castings for gate valves, check valves, plug valves, rotary control valves, and most other large valves for serious industrial applications. If you have a valve in iron, steel, or a nickel alloy, the chances are that we can pour a valve casting for it.

Pressure vessel castings are critical components in industries where high pressure and extreme conditions are a norm. These castings must meet stringent specifications to ensure safety and reliability. Quaker City Castings specializes in producing high-quality pressure vessel castings, ensuring they meet the rigorous demands of various industrial applications.

Applications of Pressure Vessel Castings

Our pressure vessel castings are designed for a variety of industrial applications where durability and precision are paramount.

  • Valves: Gate valves, check valves, plug valves, rotary control valves.
  • Pumps: Essential for fluid movement in various industrial systems.
  • Compressors: Crucial for gas compression and pressure regulation.

The same goes for our experience producing pump castings and compressor castings. We have a long history working with pump manufacturers and are familiar with most (if not all) of the ferrous alloys used in pump design and production. We pride ourselves on producing quality pump castings, avoiding sharp edges and pockets, and making your end product the best it can be. This is what we do.
