Ball Valves & Actuation

Asahi/America Duo-Bloc® Type 21 thermoplastic ball valves provide a dependable and economical way to handle corrosive chemicals. They perform at temperatures up to 250°F, and pressures to 230 psi (150 psi for polypropylene valves). True Union Duo-Bloc® Type 21 Ball Valves can be lifted from the line, simply by loosening the two union nuts. The valve can be disassembled, and parts may be replaced. The Duo-Bloc® feature blocks in two directions, leaving full pressure opposite, and allowing disconnection of downstream piping.

Asahi/America Multiport® thermoplastic valves provide a dependable and economical way to handle corrosive chemicals, such as sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid, oxidizing chemicals, caustics, solvents, halogens, and various other hostile fluids. They perform at temperatures up to 250°F (PVDF version), and pressures to 150 psi. Asahi/America Multiport® Ball Valves are three-way ball valves with a True Union design.

GF Type 546 True Union Ball Valves feature a short overall length, buttress thread design and universal multi-function module. This module significantly expands the number of uses for the Type 546 by allowing the user to easily add different accessories, actuators and switches. The multi-function module can also be used for easy wall and panel mount installation or as a position feedback unit by adding one of five different micro-switch options. GF Type 546 valves are easily automated with the newly introduced line of pneumatic and electric actuators that have been specifically designed to compliment the modularity and flexibility of the Type 546 ball valve.

Manual Hayward Three-Way Ball Valves come standard with a two port “TW” ball allowing for three flow configurations within 180˚ of rotation. With the bottom port as the inlet, the flow can be directed to the right or left port, or shutoff. On manual or actuated valves, and optional “TP” ball allows flow through all ports at the same time or flow shutoff. True Union design makes these valves very easy to maintain by allowing for easy removal from a piping system without breaking downstream connections.

This heavy-bodied, quarter-turn shut-off valve is popular where maintenance-free installations are desired for a variety of chemical, industrial and OEM applications. Factory adjusted sealed units are available in IPS sizes 1/2" through 6", with choice of either socket or threaded end connectors. Spears PTFE floating seat design reduces seat wear for extended valve life, smooth operation, bubble-tight shutoff. 100% factory tested. Safe-T-Shear® Stem to help prevent leaks out in the event of stem damage. 235 psi @ 73°F (for complete size range).
