Product guide

# Pump and valve components. How India makes them.

Pump and valve components are best sourced from Coimbatore, Rajkot and Ahmedabad, with Kolhapur, Belagavi, Kolkata and Batala supplying castings. Indian suppliers cast, machine and pressure-test pump casings, impellers, valve bodies, bonnets and discs in iron, bronze and stainless steel.

The manufacturing chain

## How it is made, in 6 steps.

The sequence Indian factories follow, from raw material to an approved part ready to ship.

  1. **Pattern & core**Wood or metal patterns and sand cores
  2. **Casting** Grey iron, ductile iron, bronze or stainless steel
  3. **Fettling & heat treatment**Cleaning, then annealing or solution treatment
  4. **Machining** Bores, flanges and seats machined on CNC
  5. **Pressure testing** Hydrostatic test of bodies and casings
  6. **Painting & packing**Epoxy or enamel coat, flange covers fitted

Key facts

Typical HS heading
    8413.91 (pump parts), 8481.90 (valve parts)  
[Check 8413.91 in the HS code finder](https://sourcesquid.co/tools/hs-code-finder/?q=8413.91)

Lead time
    Samples 5–8 weeks including patterns, production 6–10 weeks

India's edge
    Coimbatore and Rajkot are two of India's pump capitals, so casting, machining and testing skills sit close together.

### Why is Coimbatore known for pumps?

Coimbatore has a large base of pump and motor makers with supporting foundries and machine shops, serving agricultural, domestic and industrial pumps. Coimbatore Wet Grinder is also GI-registered, reflecting its motor-making skills.

### Can I get valve castings to API or EN standards?

Yes. Foundries cast valve bodies in WCB, CF8M and ductile iron, and suppliers test to API 598 or EN 12266 as required.

### Can impellers be balanced?

Yes. Suppliers balance impellers to the grade you specify, for example G6.3 to ISO 21940-11.
