Needle valves are often designed with a metal needle valve (generally brass, bronze, or stainless or other alloys of steel) and an elastomeric seat (generally PVC, CPVC, PTFE, or a wide range of brand name plastics and thermoplastics. ) While this is the most common form, valves are available that have metal - metal, plastic - plastic, or plastic- metal needles and seats.
