🚨 Your Pumps Are Underperforming – Here’s Why

  • ⚠️ Pump priming failure – air lock & dry running cost an average of $1,200 per repair (2025 industry report).
  • ⚠️ Corrosion & premature failure – cheap cast iron foot valves last only 2–3 years in aggressive water or chemical environments.
  • ⚠️ High total cost of ownership – frequent replacements + downtime reduce your margin by up to 14%.
  • ⚠️ Inconsistent quality from overseas – undocumented materials, poor thread tolerances, leaking out of the box.
  • ⚠️ Shipping delays & hidden fees – most suppliers quote low but add $300–$600 surcharges at delivery.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About SS Foot Valves

What is the difference between a foot valve and a check valve?

A foot valve is a specialized check valve with a built‑in strainer, designed to be installed at the bottom of a pump suction line. It holds the prime and prevents debris from entering the pump. A standard check valve only prevents backflow.

Can you customize the strainer mesh size and end connection?

Yes. We offer mesh from 10 to 100. End connections: NPT, BSP, flanged (ASME, DIN), or socket weld. OEM dimensions are welcome – send your drawing for a quote.

What is the lead time for SS foot valves shipped to the USA?

Stock sizes (1/2"–4") ship within 10 days via DDP or FOB. Larger sizes up to 6" require 15 days. Air freight available on request.

How do you ensure quality? Do you provide inspection reports?

Every valve undergoes hydrostatic shell and seat testing. We provide MTC and can arrange SGS or Bureau Veritas inspection at your cost. Free sample available for evaluation.
