I observe that you have got no answer during the four days since you posted your inquiry.

The reason could be that my first thought seeing your question is correct: that this valve is perhaps very difficult to find.

Several reasons: you give no details (gastype, temperature, pressure, valve flanges/ends certificates, SS type etc.

Most likely is however that this valvetype is costly and have very long stand- and lifetime, more likely to be repaired than surplussed.

Depending on your real problem (price? deliverytime?) you could either have the valve fabricated by a supplier specialized on fast delivery (non-cast, sheet material and barstock), buy from a normal production series, ask directly at a known large users spare-stock, or: use a BFL special valve, with fabricated extra ends as a permanent or preliminary replacement.

Good luck!

 
Try desalination plants as their valves are generally in super duplex stainless teel. If you are in a hurry one of them may have a spare.

You could try MTS in SPain as they provide fast deliveries.

If you want one secondhand because of the cost suggest you go to Ebay.

Has this been resolved? Can you provide some more details?
I may still have some 10" 150# CF8M Unichem V1F plug valves; flanged raised face, low-profile w/ gear operator.
