Steam Trap Valves are automated valve devices designed to rapidly discharge condensed water (condensate) and non-condensable gases (like air and CO2) from steam-powered pipelines and heat exchangers without allowing valuable live steam to escape. Zeron Fastners manufactures advanced, energy-efficient Steam Traps that optimize thermal heat transfer, eliminate water hammer, and conserve plant fuel.
We engineer the full spectrum of industrial steam traps, including rugged Thermodynamic Disc Traps, Mechanical Ball Float Traps with integral air vents, and heavy-duty Inverted Bucket Traps. Manufactured in Forged Carbon Steel (ASTM A105), Stainless Steel, and Cast Steel, our steam traps withstand water hammer, superheated temperatures, and corrosive condensate across power plants, paper mills, textiles, and pharmaceutical sterilization.
