Manufacture of other taps and valves

NACE v2.0 Code: C28.14

About manufacture of other taps and valves

NACE code 28.14 covers the manufacture of a wide range of taps, valves, and similar appliances used to control the flow of liquids and gases. This industry plays a crucial role in various sectors, including construction, manufacturing, and utilities, by providing the essential components that enable the efficient distribution and management of fluids. As a key part of the broader machinery and equipment manufacturing industry, the manufacture of taps and valves contributes significantly to the overall functioning of the economy.

Production process

The production of taps, valves, and related fittings typically involves a combination of metalworking techniques, such as casting, forging, and machining. Manufacturers may use a variety of materials, including brass, steel, and various alloys, depending on the specific application and performance requirements of the final product. Advanced manufacturing processes, including computer numerical control (CNC) machining and automated assembly, are often employed to ensure precision, consistency, and efficiency in the production of these components.

Production inputs

The manufacture of taps and valves requires a range of raw materials, including metal alloys, sealing materials (e.g., rubber, plastics), and various fasteners and hardware. Additionally, specialized machinery, such as casting equipment, forging presses, and CNC machining centers, are essential inputs for this industry. The availability and quality of these resources, as well as the skilled workforce required to operate the production equipment, are critical factors in the success of tap and valve manufacturers.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of NACE code 28.14 are a diverse range of taps, valves, and related fittings used in various applications. These components are often consumed by other industries, such as 25.11 Construction of metal structures and parts of structures, 28.13 Manufacture of other pumps and compressors, and 36.00 Water collection, treatment and supply, which rely on these products for the construction, maintenance, and operation of their systems and infrastructure.
