Gemels supplier in Romania
Ball valves and quick couplings for hydraulics
Founded in 1969 · Headquarters: Trescore Balneario (Bergamo), Italy
Who is Gemels and what does it make?
Gemels is an Italian manufacturer of ball valves and hydraulic quick couplings, active since 1969, specialising in components for the oil sector and for industrial hydraulics. From its range we can quote Oil & Gas ball valves in the SBF, SBT and DBB families, with fully welded body or raised stem, general-purpose ball valves from 1/4" to 42", and permanent magnet synchronous electric motors from 2 to 100 kW. The range of quick couplings and hydraulic valves completes the portfolio for general industrial applications.
Gemels Oil & Gas valves cover pressure ranges from ANSI 150 to ANSI 2500 and sizes from 1/4" to 42", with cryogenic or high-temperature variants, suited to both onshore and offshore installations. The SBF (split body, floating ball) and SBT (split body, trunnion mounted) families meet different sealing requirements depending on line pressure and diameter, while the Double Block & Bleed (DBB) version allows controlled isolation and draining of a pipeline segment without shutting down the whole installation.
For the Romanian market, the Gemels range makes sense for operators in the oil and gas sector, industrial installations with high-pressure pipework, and projects where valves must meet internationally recognised pressure and size standards.
What do we supply from the Gemels range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| SBF (Split Body Floating) ball valves | Floating ball valves with split body, for ANSI 150-2500 pressures, used on onshore and offshore Oil & Gas pipelines where direct sealing on the seat matters for line safety. |
| SBT (Split Body Trunnion) ball valves | Trunnion-mounted ball valves with split body, for ANSI 150-2500 pressures, recommended for large diameters where the weight of the ball can no longer be supported by the seats alone. |
| Double Block & Bleed (DBB) valves | Valves with a double isolation and bleed function (double block and bleed), for safe maintenance work on pipeline segments without shutting down the whole system. |
| Permanent magnet synchronous electric motors | Electric motors from 2 to 100 kW, with permanent magnets, made in Italy. |

How do we supply Gemels in Romania?
We supply Gemels valves and components to order, through EU supply channels, without promising immediate availability on any family in the SBF, SBT or DBB range. The data above comes from the manufacturer's technical documentation, and for exact pressure or size parameters on a specific model we recommend direct confirmation when ordering. To order, usually 1–4 weeks from placing the order to delivery, depending on the size and pressure of the valve chosen. For a quotation, tell us the nominal diameter, the pressure class (ANSI), the type of fluid handled and whether the application is onshore or offshore.
We do not confirm project-specific certifications (for example API 6D) for each model without the manufacturer's prior confirmation, and we do not keep this range on the shelf for large-size valves.
Frequently asked questions about Gemels
What products does Gemels make?
Gemels produces ball valves for the Oil & Gas sector and for industrial hydraulics, hydraulic quick couplings and, as a complementary line, permanent magnet synchronous electric motors. The valve range covers sizes from 1/4 to 42 inches and ANSI pressure classes from 150 to 2500.
How do I choose a Gemels valve by code?
The family (SBF, SBT, DBB etc.) indicates the body construction type and the sealing method, and the final choice depends on the nominal diameter, the ANSI pressure class and the material required for the fluid handled. Send us these details so we can identify the suitable model.
What is the equivalent of the Gemels DBB valve?
The Gemels Double Block & Bleed valve performs the same function of safe isolation and draining of a pipeline segment as the DBB valves from other Oil & Gas valve manufacturers, but the sizes and pressures available must be checked model by model.
Do you supply Gemels valves in Romania and how long does it take?
Yes, we bring in Gemels valves and components to order through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks, depending on size and on the availability confirmed by the manufacturer.
What details should I send for a quotation for a Gemels valve?
Please send us the nominal diameter, the ANSI pressure class, the material wanted (carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex), the type of fluid handled and whether the installation is onshore or offshore.
How do I request a Gemels quotation?
Send the Gemels code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
