2 Piece Ball Valves
2 Piece Ball Valves are quarter-turn shut-off valves designed to control or isolate the flow of liquids and gases in piping systems. Their body consists of two main sections assembled around a rotating ball. When the handle is turned 90°, the ball opens or closes the flow passage, providing quick and reliable on/off operation. Two-piece ball valves are commonly available in full-port and reduced-port designs, with threaded, flanged, or welded connections depending on the application.
Product Highlights
- Two-piece body construction for a strong and practical design
- Quarter-turn operation for quick shut-off and flow isolation
- Available in full-port and reduced-port configurations
- Full-port versions provide a relatively unrestricted flow passage and low pressure drop
- Blowout-proof stem designs are available for improved operational safety
- PTFE seats and seals are commonly used for reliable shut-off
- Suitable for manual operation and, depending on design, pneumatic or electric actuation
- Available with locking lever handles for preventing unintended operation
- Threaded connections can include NPT, BSP/BSPT and other standards, depending on manufacturer
- Available in a wide range of pressure ratings and sizes; specifications must be selected according to the particular valve design
