ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic valve for opening and closing a fluid flow passage by operating a plunger under a magnetic force of a solenoid. The valve comprises a valve head provided at one of opposite ends of the plunger, and a fixed valve seat including an orifice providing a fluid flow passage. The valve head is adapted to abut against the valve seat to close the orifice. A spring resiliently presses the valve head in a direction for abutment of the valve head against the valve seat to close the orifice. Either one of the valve head and the valve seat is formed from a metallic material and the other is formed from a non-metallic material having a greater hardness than the metallic material. It is preferred that the metallic material be a highly corrosion-resistant metal alloy containing Ni in a high amount ratio, and the non-metallic material be of a ceramic type.
