End entry ball valves are designed for closed-loop, bidirectional shut-off applications. The ball, which is attached to the valve stem, is held in place by two elastomeric seats.  When upstream pressure is generated, the ball is pressed against the downstream seat, creating a tight seal. In some applications, this valve allows for bi-directional shut-off, as […]

If you’re in the market for industrial plumbing valves, you’ve come to the right place. Valves are integral components of industrial systems and must meet specific sanitation and regulatory requirements. While the selection process can be daunting, starting with a few general characteristics will narrow down your options.  Valves are electromechanical devices that regulate and […]

While both ball valve and butterfly valve are used in the same way, there are a few key differences. Ball valves provide better cutoff characteristics in high-pressure applications. Butterfly valves require a pressure-balancing scheme to regulate the flow. This makes them better suited for a variety of services. Both types of valves can control flow […]

These valves are designed to control the flow of fluid in a pipeline. Their unique function is to open when the bore of the valve is aligned with the pipeline and close when the bore is perpendicular to the flow of fluid. These valves are not well suited for throttling flow, but their open/closed state […]

The trunnion is often used in many industrial applications. It is also used in a ball valve. This trunnion keeps the ball inside the valve in place and controls the flow with it. A ball valve equipped with a trunnion is known as a trunnion ball valve.  A ball valve in a trunnion mount will […]

If you are interested in learning about the different types of strainers used in pipelines, you’ve come to the right place. Before you start your next project, make sure you’re familiar with the different types of strainers. It’s important to choose the right one for your application based on the type of contaminants you’ll be dealing with.

Floating ball valves have different ways of working. One is to increase the flow of fluid through the valve by partially turning the ball disc in one direction. In the other, the ball is rotated 90 degrees to face the flow of media. This system also creates an orifice that changes size as upstream pressure […]

Despite its name, a 3-way plug valve is more than just a valve. It can switch multiple systems without depressurizing the system. It is a multi-purpose valve capable of delivering flow from either the side or base ports.  These valves can handle a wide variety of liquids and dirty gases. In addition to switching multiple […]
