PP PVC UPVC Ball Valve
PP, PVC and UPVC ball valves are quarter-turn shut-off valves designed for reliable flow control in chemical, water treatment and industrial piping systems. Their corrosion-resistant thermoplastic construction ensures accurate shutoff, easy operation and long service life.
Overview
PP, PVC and UPVC ball valves use a spherical ball with a central bore to control flow. A 90-degree rotation of the handle opens or closes the valve, allowing fast operation and clear visual indication of valve position.
