Floating Straight Through Seal Valve Ball

A valve ball is a spherical, mechanical component used within ball valves to regulate the flow of liquids and gases. Typically made of durable materials such as stainless steel, cemented carbide，brass, or specialized plastics, valve balls feature a precision-drilled hole through the center, known as a bore. The position of the ball—rotated by an external actuator—determines the flow state: open, closed, or throttled. When aligned with the pipeline, the bore allows fluid to pass through; rotated 90 degrees, it blocks the flow. High precision in the ball's design ensures effective sealing and minimal leakage, making it vital in applications requiring reliable shut-off and control. Applications: Oil and Gas Industry: Used in pipelines for controlling the flow of crude oil, natural gas, and other hydrocarbons, often in extreme temperatures and pressures. Chemical Processing: Employed to handle corrosive and hazardous chemicals, providing reliable isolation and flow control…
