Ringo Bronze Globe Valves
Engineered for Precision. Built from Bronze. Trusted in Critical Applications.
At BronzeValve, we supply a specialist range of Ringo Bronze Globe Valves designed for fine-tuned flow regulation in the most demanding environments. As part of the Samson Controls Group, Ringo Valves are manufactured to exceptional standards with the added benefit of advanced customisation — including the use of bronze and bronze alloy materials for increased durability, corrosion resistance, and application flexibility.
Unlike general-purpose globe valves, Ringo’s bronze globe valves are engineered for precision flow control in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive applications — making them a first-choice solution across power plants, marine systems, chemical facilities, and defence infrastructure.
Why Choose Bronze Globe Valves?
Bronze, and its alloyed variants, offers a distinct advantage in control valve performance due to its combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and castability. Ringo's expertise in manufacturing bronze globe valves allows them to supply highly durable valves that are tailored to harsh and specialised process conditions.
- Nickel Aluminium Bronze (NAB) – provides excellent seawater resistance and long service life in marine cooling and bilge systems
- Tin Bronze – performs exceptionally well in high-pressure steam control and thermal fluid regulation
- Phosphor Bronze and Silicon Bronze – offer high strength, wear resistance, and smooth throttling for aggressive process fluids
These materials resist dezincification, galvanic corrosion, and scaling — critical for long-term flow stability and system integrity.
Configurations & Trim Options
Straight Pattern Globe Valves
These valves allow linear flow with a compact footprint, making them ideal for confined systems where straightforward installation is required. Bronze-bodied designs offer additional resistance to corrosion, perfect for aggressive or salt-laden environments.
Angle Pattern Globe Valves
With a 90° flow path, these globe valves are used to change direction while regulating flow, reducing the need for extra elbows and fittings. Popular in marine and chemical setups where space is limited and pipe routing is complex.
Y-Pattern Globe Valves
Designed to reduce pressure drop across the valve, Y-patterns are favoured in high-flow applications such as power plant cooling systems or superheated steam regulation. The bronze construction helps minimise erosion and scaling under extreme conditions.
Trim Customisation
Ringo offers a variety of trim options — including bronze, Monel, Inconel, and Stellite overlays — to match the chemical and mechanical demands of each system. Options for metal-to-metal or soft seat shut-off ensure compatibility with clean or particulate-laden media.
Engineered for Performance
Each Ringo Bronze Globe Valve is designed and manufactured to meet international standards such as ASME B16.34, EN 13709, and API 623. Key performance features include:
-
Precision throttling capability, ideal for flow balancing and control loops
-
Compact body sizes, well-suited for marine, chemical skids, and modular units
-
Anti-cavitation and noise reduction trims, available for high-differential pressure applications
-
Fire-safe and fugitive emission compliant designs, ensuring full environmental protection
Valves are available bare stem, manually operated, or supplied with Samson pneumatic or electric actuators — delivering seamless integration into automated systems.
Application Case Studies
Naval & Marine Cooling Systems – Ringo bronze globe valves with NAB construction used in saltwater cooling loops and engine compartment systems. Their corrosion resistance ensures long-term performance without degradation.
Steam & Power Generation – Tin bronze Y-pattern globe valves installed in high-pressure feedwater and condensate return systems in thermal power plants. Their precision control capabilities reduce thermal shock and prevent water hammer.
Chemical Processing – Angle globe valves made from phosphor bronze deployed in chlorinated process lines to regulate flow of aggressive chemicals, where stainless steel would typically corrode over time.
LNG and Cryogenic Services – Special bronze variants of globe valves used in sub-zero temperature environments, offering reliable modulation control with minimal thermal contraction or metal fatigue.
