Different materials of construction are available, from FCD (cast iron / nodular iron) up to SS6 (full casted 316L stainless steel) or duplex stainless steel,

but also many combinations with cast iron, stainless steel, ceramic coating, stainless steel cladding.

The material designation (for example SCS13) are based on JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards). A material equivalency chart is available in the following.
