When you need materials for your business-like valves or machined parts you can do business with a company that offers stock or “off the shelf” products. This can save you money on valves, but when you go to a custom manufacturing company, you’ll enjoy many benefits. Here are some of the good things they have to offer.
Getting it Right
When you buy a stock part, you may get something that fits your needs, but you take your chances. You may end up modifying something in your installation or equipment to make your system fit the valves. On the other hand, a custom manufacturing company that makes “built to order” parts can manufacture valves with all the right specs. They will fit seamlessly and perfectly into your needs.
Mass Produced Vs. Custom
Many companies today still make valves in a mass production process. Although this provides cost-effective solutions for many businesses, these kinds of parts also come with a price. For example, suppose you need a brass two-way ball valve with inline shape and 3/4-inch female fittings on both ends. With a stock supplier, you may eventually get what you need by installing several adapters. However, this increases the time for installation and may take up more space than you have available.
You can solve many space issues and installation problems by choosing a custom manufacturing company that specializes in valves. They can give you a multitude of options for most of the important valve features that you need, like fittings, seals, and springs.
Many Options
Do you need poppet plastic check valves with push to connect fittings on one end and barb fittings on the other? Maybe you need 5-way ball valves with 5 different fittings on each valve. These are only two of many selections you’ll receive from your custom manufacturing company.
