Structural Characteristics of
The valve body is manufactured from freely forged ASTM A105 carbon steel, featuring dense metal structure with minimal internal defects, providing excellent mechanical strength and pressure-bearing capability for medium- and high-pressure applications.
The streamlined internal flow passage minimizes flow disturbance. The resistance coefficient is close to that of an equivalent length of straight pipe, effectively reducing system pressure loss.
Under line pressure, the ball is forced against the downstream seat, ensuring stable and reliable bidirectional sealing performance.
The valve features ANSI flanged ends with RF facing, providing reliable sealing performance and allowing easy installation, removal, and maintenance.
A 90-degree rotation enables fast opening and closing with low operating torque, making the valve suitable for quick shut-off and frequent operation.
When fully open or fully closed, the sealing surfaces are isolated from direct flow erosion, reducing wear and extending the service life of the valve.
Suitable for water, steam, oil, gas, and other media, widely used in petroleum, chemical, power, and general industrial facilities.
