I. Introduction to Bray Material Selection Guide


The Bray Material Selection Guide for butterfly valve seats and discs is intended to be used exactly as its name implies
as a guide to aid in selection of the most cost effective butterfly valve materials. The information tabulated herein is
based upon valve usage experience, data from elastomer, metal and other suppliers, data from customers and
experienced elastomer compounders, and data from published standard references and literature. Though Bray believes
these material recommendations to be valuable in selecting appropriate materials, one must recognize there are a variety
of factors which exist for each specific field application. Some of the factors which must be considered are temperature,
concentration, velocity, aeration, pressure, presence of other materials in the media, operating frequency, flow conditions,
suspended abrasive particles, etc. Each of these factors may have a severe effect on the performance of the material. In
addition, these factors can exist in field applications in an endless number of different combinations. As a result, it is not
possible to develop a material recommendation chart which accounts for all the given combination of factors for each
corrosive media. In addition, the grade of elastomers and the compound itself will determine elastomer performance. With
this understanding, Bray explicitly states:
No representation, guarantee, warranty, or responsibility, express or implied, is made by the Bray Material Selection
Guide herein because of the complexity and infinite combinations of concentration mixtures, flow conditions,
temperatures, and other application factors possible in actual service. All responsibility regarding the suitability of
materials chosen for an application lies solely with the customer and/or engineering company hired by the customer to
assist him. Bray cannot guarantee the accuracy of this Material Selection Guide nor assume responsibility for the use
thereof. If one is in doubt, it is always best to test first.

II. Materials Selection Guide How to Use


a) Corrosive Media Column All media are listed alphabetically. All oil, water, and plating solution media have been
listed under their group heading for convenience. Some chemicals having a common laymens name have been
referenced as such.
In a resilient seated butterfly like Brays design, the seat and disc are the only valve pans exposed to the line media.
Brays selection of seat materials includes various elastomers and Teflon line elastomers. The variety of disc materials
includes metal and elastomer, nylon, or Teflon covered metals. Thus, to best analyze the materials offered for a particular
media application, Bray has grouped the materials into two groups disc materials and seat/disc materials. Please note
that since Bray offers elastomers and Teflon as both a seat or as a covering for discs, we have called the second
grouping seat/disc materials
b) Physical State Column This condition identifies the physical state of the corrosive media at room temperature as
Gas, Liquid or Solid. Note that almost all solids are conveyed in solution and only a few media such as cement,
baking soda, flour, sugar, sulfur, etc. are pneumatically conveyed as solids.
c) Condition Column These columns define any unique condition parameters of the media for rating the materials. If
no conditions are specified, it should be assumed the concentration is any level 0 100% and to allowable temperature is
the seat materials temperature rating except for nylon covered ductile iron. With regard to disc materials the nylon
covered ductile iron disc is covered with Nylon 11. This material is rated for temperatures well over 200F. For purposes
of the Material Selection Guide, however, we have chosen to limit the A rating of Nylon covered discs in continual service
to 140F, with the exception of waters and oils. If one has an application over 140F and would like to use nylon covered
discs, please call Brays Inside Sales Department for further information on your specific application. Please see example
on Pg. 2.

detailed knowledge and experience with their application.

Since no conditions are specified for Disc Materials, one should assume nylon covered ductile iron is the recommended
material for content temperatures up to 140F, and 316 stainless steel above 140F. Of course, Nylon 11 may actually be
suitable for temperatures much greater than 140F, as stated previously (see Technical Bulletin 1009, Nylon Coatings
Physical/Chemical Resistance Properties for additional information).
d) Disc Materials and Seat/Disc Materials Under each grouping, the primary materials offered by Bray have been
graded for their suitability to the media and conditions stated. The grading system is as follows:
A Recommended, generally little or minor effect based on valve usage experience and recommendations from
suppliers
B May sometimes be used depending upon the conditions of application such as concentration and temperature.
Testing is recommended before full-scale usage.
N Not recommended for usage.
Blank Insufficient evidence available
e) Recommended Materials for Disc and Seat/Disc For each media and condition, we have placed an asterisk by the
disc and seat material recommended by Bray. The material given an asterisk depends on two factors:
1) The material is rated A for compatibility with the media conditions;
2) It is the most economical Bray material offered as a disc in combination with the most economical seat material.

If the carbon tetrachloride for your media is <75F, you must choose a 316 disc, not AB, because Bray does not offer an
AB disc with a Teflon seat. If the temperature is >75F, one should not assume we do not have a suitable valve material
code. Remember, Bray carries EPDM, BUNA-N, and Teflon molded disc-stems, thus one should select a Teflon disc stem
and a Teflon seat for this application.

f) Coating of Disc Materials When a disc coating is recommended, it will be noted in this column. The most economical
Bray coating material will be noted with an asterisk. An example of reading the Material Selection Guide with a
recommended disc coating is as follows:

If one has a concentration of Hydrochloric Acid less than 5% at any temperature, Bray recommends an NDI disc and
EPDM seat. If the condition is a concentration less than 37% and less than 75F, then again an EPDM disc stem and seat
are recommended. Finally, if the condition is one that is over 15% concentration at a temperature of 75F or more, or the
concentration is 37% or more at any temperature, Bray recommends a Series 22/23 Teflon disc stem and seat, or a disc
an stem that has EPDM coating.
