The Threaded SS316, 800 PSI globe valve
Built to API 602, with NPT threaded ends.
A rising‑stem globe valve for throttling and isolation, in ½" to 2" (DN15 to DN50), with NPT threaded ends and a body in Forged stainless steel F316, Stellite faced seat. Rated 800 PSI, designed and manufactured to API 602, inspected and tested to API 598.
Inside, flow turns up through a seat opening, past a disc that lifts squarely off the seat, and turns down again. The stem moves the disc towards or away from the seat, so the gap changes smoothly with stem position and a flow can be set and held. That is the job a gate valve cannot do — a gate parked part open vibrates and wears its seat. The cost is pressure drop even fully open, because the path turns twice. Globe against gate.
- Rated 200 °C, as the catalogue states. For duty above that, ask us to confirm the ceiling with the factory before you order — the construction is forged 316 with graphite packing and a Stellite faced seat.
- The sectional drawing for this variant is available on request. The 16‑item parts list below is published in full with the manufacturer’s item numbers, and the forged steel 800 PSI section shows the same arrangement in carbon steel.
- The seat is Stellite faced, like the carbon steel version. Item 1 reads F316 + STL and item 2 316 + STL — both the seat and the disc face are hardfaced. On a throttling valve that is what stops the seating surfaces washing out, because flow through a narrow gap is fast.
- ⚠ The gland flange is F304, not 316. Item 11. It is not in the wetted path, but on a valve bought specifically for corrosion resistance it is worth knowing that one external part is a lower grade.
- NPT only. No BSPT option on this variant. If you need BSPT in stainless, the 200 PSI valve offers both — at a quarter of the pressure.
Three angles on the same valve. Photographs of the stocked item, not renders.

No sectional drawing survives for this variant — see the note below. The forged steel 800 PSI section shows the same arrangement in carbon steel.
- The item numbers are the manufacturer’s. They are the callout numbers from the sectional drawing, which is why a number can repeat a part name at a different position. We have left them exactly as published so a spares order matches the drawing.
- The seating surfaces are what wear. On a valve that runs part open, flow through the gap is fast, and the disc face and seat take that. They are the parts to ask about first.
- Everything here is published, not on request. If you need to know what touches your fluid, the whole list is above.
Sizes and dimensions
6 sizes. Dimensions in millimetres.
The dimension that decides whether the valve fits is face‑to‑face L — the gap it needs in the pipe run. A globe valve is longer face to face than a gate valve of the same size, so it is not a drop‑in replacement for one. Letters follow the manufacturer’s drawing; where a letter is ambiguous we have left it as published rather than guess.
| Size | DN | Face‑to‑face L | Handwheel W |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/2" | 15 | 80 | 100 |
| 3/4" | 20 | 92 | 100 |
| 1" | 25 | 110 | 122 |
| 1 1/4" | 32 | 120 | 155 |
| 1 1/2" | 40 | 151 | 155 |
| 2" | 50 | 173 | 180 |
- ⚠ Measure the gap in the run against face‑to‑face L. On a replacement, measure the valve coming out rather than trusting a drawing — and if you are replacing a gate valve, expect the globe valve to be longer.
- Leave headroom for the stem. The stem rises as the valve opens, so the closed height is not the open height. Height H where published is the closed figure.
- Leave room to turn the handwheel. Handwheel W is its diameter, and a globe valve takes many turns rather than a quarter turn. Send us the space you have if it is tight.
- Support the weight. A valve must not hang on the pipework, and on the larger sizes here that matters.
Test pressures and temperature
Factory proof tests. Not working pressures.
| Nominal Pressure | 800 PSI |
| Strength Test Pressure | 21.5 MPa |
| Back Seat Test | 15.5 MPa |
| Sealing Test | 15.5 MPa |
| Air Sealing Test | 0.6 MPa |
| Max Working Pressure | 200 &°;C |
- ⚠ Do not design to these figures. They are manufacturing proof tests well above the working rating — the shell test proves the body, the seal test proves the disc against its seat. The valve is not intended to operate there.
- Gas tightness is 0.6 MPa, the same figure across all ten variants in this range. It is the one number that does not move with class, size or material.
- The temperature ceiling is the material, not a seat insert. A globe valve seals metal to metal and packs the stem with graphite, which is why the steel variants here reach 425 °C where a PTFE‑seated ball valve stops at 150. All ten compared.
Fitting and operating it
Four things that decide whether it works.
- Flow under the seat, normally. Line pressure then helps lift the disc, the packing sits out of the throttling stream, and the valve opens against less force. Check the arrow on the body and fit it that way round — a globe valve fitted backwards still works, but it throttles worse and wears its packing faster.
- It is allowed to sit part open. That is what it is for. Set the position with the handwheel and leave it. Unlike a gate valve, nothing is being damaged by running in between.
- Expect pressure drop even fully open. The flow path turns twice. If you need a straight‑through path and only ever want on or off, a gate valve or a ball valve is the right tool.
- Do not close it with a bar. A globe valve seals with the disc pressed onto its seat, and the handwheel gives you enough leverage already. Over‑tightening deforms the seating faces, and on this valve the seat is part of the body on the forged variants — there is nothing to replace.
- Re‑tighten the gland if the stem weeps. A little and evenly. Graphite packing takes some adjustment; a leaking stem left alone will cut the stem itself.
Not sure this is the right one?
Duty first, then end connection, then material.
Choose this one when
- You need to set and hold a flow, not just open and shut.
- Your pipework takes NPT threaded ends — checked, not assumed.
- Working pressure is within 800 PSI and temperature within 200 °C as published.
- The duty suits Forged stainless steel F316, Stellite faced seat.
- Your specification names API 602 or API 598.
Choose something else when
- You only ever want fully open or fully shut with least pressure drop → gate valves or ball valves.
- You need a quarter turn you can operate in a second → ball valves.
- Your end connection is different → the other nine variants. Nothing here adapts across end types.
- You need higher pressure → high pressure valves, or needle valves for fine control at pressure.
- You need to stop reverse flow rather than control forward flow → check valves.
- The bore is large and the pressure low → butterfly valves.

Questions we get asked
The ones that come up on the phone.
What is the Threaded SS316, 800 PSI globe valve?
A rising‑stem globe valve for throttling and isolation, ½" to 2" (DN15 to DN50), with NPT threaded ends and a body in Forged stainless steel F316, Stellite faced seat. Rated 800 PSI for service at 200 °C as published. Designed and manufactured to API 602, inspected and tested to API 598. Shell tested at 21.5 MPa.
What is a globe valve for, and why not use a gate valve?
A globe valve is built to run part open. Flow turns up through a seat opening, past a disc that lifts squarely off the seat, and turns down again — so the gap changes smoothly with stem position and a flow can be set and held. A gate valve must not be parked part open: the gate sits in the stream, vibrates, and cuts its own seat. Use a globe valve to set a flow, a gate valve or a ball valve to go fully open or fully shut with the least pressure drop.
Can I use it to replace a gate valve of the same size?
Usually not without changing the pipework. A globe valve is longer face to face than a gate valve at the same size — at 2" in cast steel it is 203 mm against 178. It also drops more pressure when fully open. Measure the gap in your run against the face‑to‑face figures before ordering, and if the answer is that only a gate valve fits, we stock ten of those too.
Which way round does it go in?
Normally flow under the seat, so line pressure helps lift the disc and the packing sits out of the throttling stream. Check the arrow cast or stamped on the body and follow it. Fitted the other way it still works, but it throttles less well and wears the gland faster.
What temperature can it run at?
The published figure is 200 °C as published. A globe valve seals metal to metal and packs the stem with graphite, so the body material sets the ceiling rather than a polymer seat — which is why the steel variants in this range reach 425 °C against 150 °C for a PTFE‑seated ball valve. Several variants publish figures that do not line up with each other; we set all ten out and flag every one.
What is it made of?
The body is Forged stainless steel F316, Stellite faced seat and the trim is 316 disc and stem, 316 gland, F304 gland flange. The full numbered parts list is on this page, with the manufacturer’s own item numbers so a spares order matches the drawing.
What are the test pressures?
21.5 MPa shell or body test, 15.5 MPa seal test, and 0.6 MPa gas tightness. Those are factory proof tests, not working pressures — do not design to them. Gas tightness is 0.6 MPa on all ten variants in this range. The figures.
Will it fit my pipework?
It has NPT threaded ends, and end dimensions to NPT taper thread. That has to match what you have — and on a flanged valve the pressure rating does not answer the question, because ANSI 150 and JIS 10K are rated similarly and drilled differently. Send us the end type and size, or a photo of the mating flange, and we will confirm. All ten end types compared.
How many turns to open it?
Many — a globe valve is not a quarter‑turn valve. The stem rises as it opens, so the handwheel position tells you the disc position, which is what makes it usable for setting a flow. Travel is shorter than a gate valve of the same size, because the disc only has to clear the seat rather than rise clear of the whole bore.
