Product Information

Stainless steel three-piece ball valve is a kind of ball valve made of stainless steel 304 or 316. The internal threaded connection of this type of ball valve is a two-piece connection structure with full bore diameter, and the connection methods include G thread, NPT thread, PT thread, etc.. Stainless steel three-piece ball valves have a nominal pressure range of 1.6-6.4MPa, a wide range of applicable temperatures, from -20℃ to 232℃ to 350℃, and are suitable for water, oil, gas and certain corrosive liquids and other media. This valve is widely used in various industries because of its compact structure, easy operation and maintenance, reliable sealing and other characteristics1.
The main difference between stainless steel three-piece ball valves and one-piece ball valves lies in its structural form and scope of application. The spool flow path of one-piece ball valves is reduced in size, and the flow capacity is limited to a certain extent, while three-piece ball valves do not have this limitation, providing greater flow capacity and a wider range of application scenarios.2 Furthermore, the The advantages of stainless steel three-piece ball valves also include low fluid resistance, with a resistance coefficient equal to that of a pipe section of the same length, which makes it effective in reducing energy consumption and improving system efficiency in piping systems.

 

Product Advantage

1, The fluid resistance is small its resistance coefficient is equal to the same length of the pipe section, which means that in the process of fluid transmission, the stainless steel three-piece ball valve almost does not add additional resistance, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of fluid transmission.
2, Simple structure, small size, light weight this design not only simplifies the process of installation and maintenance, but also reduces the cost, suitable for space-limited installation environment.
3, Tight and reliable the sealing surface material of the ball valve is widely used plastic, with good sealing, even in the vacuum system can maintain efficient sealing performance.
4, Easy to operate the opening and closing operation of the ball valve is rapid, from fully open to fully closed only need to rotate 90 °, which is convenient for remote control and improves work efficiency.
5, Easy maintenance the structure of the ball valve is simple, the seal ring can be replaced movably, low maintenance costs, extending the service life of the valve.
6, A wide range of applications whether it is as small as a few millimetres or as large as a few metres of diameter, whether it is a high vacuum or high pressure environment, stainless steel three-piece ball valves can be adapted to a very wide range of applications.
