Globe Valve Angle Bronze JIS 16K - F7304
Bronze Angle Globe Valve JIS 16K F7304
The JIS F7304 is a 90° angle globe valve designed for marine piping systems, featuring flanged ends to JIS 16K standard. The angle flow configuration is specified where the pipeline changes direction and manual isolation or throttling is required. This product is referenced as a bronze 16K angle valve, in accordance with JIS F 7304-1996.

Applications
Suitable for auxiliary shipboard systems where bronze valves and JIS 16K flanges are specified:

- air or auxiliary fluid lines
- low/medium pressure steam (verify temperature limits)
- connection points near pumps, tanks, or equipment with flow direction change
F7304 vs F7303
F7303 is a straight pattern globe valve JIS 16K. F7304 is the angle pattern version, providing 90° flow change. Angle valves are selected where piping geometry allows replacement of both an elbow and a valve, reducing flange connections and potential leak points.
Selection Considerations
Prior to procurement, confirm DN, JIS 16K flange drilling, operating pressure and temperature, media compatibility, flow direction, access for manual operation, and class society requirements. Standard configuration is manual; actuator options are not specified on this page.
