Brass Ball Valve

Technical Requirements:
  1. Design & Manufacture: General Industry Standards (ANSI/ASME)
  2. End Connections: Threaded (NPT / BSP)
  3. Inspection & Test: Standard Hydrostatic and Pneumatic Testing

Description

The Brass Ball Valve is a compact, reliable isolation valve that uses a spherical disc to control fluid flow. When open, the ball’s bore aligns with the pipe; when closed, it rotates 90 degrees to block the flow completely. Its combination of durability, ease of use, and leak-tightness makes it an industry standard for a wide variety of fluid control needs.
