Bronze is made of copper and tin, while brass is made of copper and zinc. The choice between these materials often depends on the environment in which the valve is to be installed. There are many reasons why bronze stands out over brass as the primary material for manufacturing ball valves. The main differences are:    <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Superior performance and versatility<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>All types of bronze alloys, such as B-62, RG-10 and aluminum bronze, offer excellent performance in a variety of applications. Aluminum bronze is especially resistant to saltwater corrosion, making it the ideal choice for marine environments. <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Durability with customization options<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>Bronze ball valves can be customized with materials such as monel or stainless steel for internal components,<\/strong> allowing the choice of material for the ideal environment and significantly increasing their durability in harsh environments.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Extensive industrial functionalities<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>In addition to their applications in marine environments, bronze ball valves can also be found in industries such as military, oil and gas, chemical processing and wastewater treatment.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prevention of degalvanization<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>Bronze prevents dezincification<\/strong>, a process in which zinc is removed from brass due to a thermal process, leaving a porous and weakened copper structure. The presence of tin in bronze creates a more stable alloy, which inhibits zinc leaching and significantly improves strength. This strength translates into increased durability and service life of bronze ball valves, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fhtvalves.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1719295624305.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3685\" style=\"width:821px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fhtvalves.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1719295624305.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.fhtvalves.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1719295624305-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 800px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>In modern industries, <strong>bronze ball valves offer a unique set of advantages<\/strong>.
