PFA-Lined Valves for Mining and Mineral Processing

Protecting Against Corrosive Chemicals and Harsh Conditions

Mining and mineral processing often involve the handling of highly corrosive chemicals and abrasive materials, from sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid used in metal leaching to abrasive slurry flows in ore separation. Our PFA-lined ball valves, control valves, check valves, swing check valves, and strainers are engineered to withstand the aggressive conditions found in critical processes such as leaching, slurry management, and chemical transfer. PFA’s chemical resistance, along with its ability to endure high temperatures, ensures your mining operations run smoothly and equipment downtime is minimized. These valves offer long-term durability, protecting key systems from corrosion while ensuring optimal flow control in the toughest mining environments.
