316L Stainless Steel Valve Seat Ring – Durable Support for Precision Valve Sealing
This valve seat ring is made from 316L stainless steel and used as a structural support part behind the sealing seat in industrial valve assemblies. Its role is to provide consistent compression, accurate positioning, and a stable interface between the seat and the valve body.
We machine this component from solid 316L bar or forged blanks using CNC lathes, ensuring tight tolerances and a smooth finish. The surface that contacts the sealing element is polished to avoid damage to soft seals like PTFE or graphite and to ensure a uniform load distribution. For metal-to-metal sealing applications, the ring maintains concentricity under pressure to help prevent uneven wear or leakage.
