Stainless steel ball valves are made of a rotating valve core that opens or blocks the valve. Stainless steel ball valves adopt this principle. They can be closed through 90-degree rotation operation with very small rotational torque, and are easy to operate, compact in size, and light in switching. The most important feature of the 3-way stainless steel ball valve is its resistance to material erosion, which has led to its wide application.

The model of the stainless steel ball valve differs; the carbon steel ball valve model is different: Q41F-10C, where Q stands for ball valve, 4 indicates flange connection, 1 indicates floating, and finally C indicates the valve material is carbon steel; the stainless steel ball valve model is Q41F-10P with stainless steel 304 material.

What specifications and models do stainless steel ball valves have?

1. Nominal pressure or pressure class: PN1.0-32.0 MPa, ANSI CLASS 150-900, JIS 10-20K;

2. Nominal diameter or size: DN6 to 900, NPS 1/4 to 36.

A ball valve is a shut-off valve whose closing member (sphere) is driven by the valve stem and rotates around the ball valve axis. It can also be used for fluid regulation and control. The hard-sealed V-type ball valve has a strong shearing force between its V-type ball core and the metal valve seat with sprayed hard alloy, making it especially suitable for fibers, small solid particles, and similar substances.

The products of stainless steel ball valve manufacturers can not only flexibly control the merging, separation, and switching of flow directions of the medium in pipelines. At the same time, any channel can be closed while the other two channels remain connected. This type of shut-off valve is generally installed in pipelines. Ball valves are divided by driving mode into pneumatic ball valves, electric ball valves, and manual ball valves.
