WESDUN Successfully Exports Forged Steel Valves to Zambia, Building New Cooperation
As a globally recognized industrial valve manufacturer and supplier, WESDUN recently confirmed the successful export of high-quality forged steel gate valves and check valves to Zambia. This shipment marks WESDUN’s continued expansion into the African market. It also provides reliable fluid control solutions to support Zambia’s growing infrastructure, mining, and energy sectors—strengthening industrial equipment cooperation between China and Zambia.
Zambia’s Booming Industries Fuel Demand for High-Performance Valves
As a key economic hub in Southern Africa, Zambia is experiencing strong growth in infrastructure, mining, and clean energy projects. With a projected 6.4% economic growth rate in 2025, demand for high-performance industrial valves is rising rapidly—especially in mining, hydropower, and petrochemical sectors. Stable, durable fluid control equipment is critical here to ensure operational safety and efficiency. WESDUN’s forged steel gate and check valves are tailored to these local needs, combining advanced technology, strict quality control, and strong adaptability to harsh working conditions.

International-Standard Forged Steel Valves: Quality You Can Trust
WESDUN’s exported forged steel gate and check valves meet international standards like API 602, ISO 15761, and ASME B16.10, which ensures seamless compatibility with global industrial systems. Unlike cast steel valves—prone to internal defects such as air pockets and looseness—WESDUN’s forged steel valves go through precision forging. This process refines the material structure, boosts strength, and eliminates flaws. The result is superior pressure resistance, reliability, and a long service life, suitable for operating temperatures from -46°C to 600°C and pressure classes from Class 150 to 2500 (PN10 to PN420).
Key Product Features: Designed for Zambia’s Industrial Needs
Key features of WESDUN’s exported valves enhance their competitiveness in Zambia. Sealing surfaces are overlay-welded with cobalt-based hard alloy, offering excellent wear, corrosion, and scratch resistance. The valves come in multiple connection types—flange, socket welding, butt welding, and thread—making them versatile for mining, hydropower, and industrial pipeline systems. Additionally, valve surfaces can be blackened or painted to meet local environmental needs, providing effective rust protection and a clean finish.
