Something About Ball Valves

Ball valve is a common fluid pipeline control equipment, which is divided into two types: copper ball valve and non-copper ball valve. In actual use, it is necessary to select a suitable ball valve according to the specific use environment and fluid medium.IFAN factory 30+ years manufacture experience support color /size customization support free sample.Welcome to consult for catalog and free samples.

The difference between different material ball valves

The main difference between copper ball valves and non-copper ball valves is the difference in material. Copper ball valves are widely used in waterway systems, air-conditioning refrigeration, heating engineering and other fields. The material has good thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, and its durability is relatively high. However, the price of copper ball valves is relatively high, and the weight is relatively large, so it is not suitable for large-diameter pipeline control.

The main materials used for non-copper ball valves include stainless steel, titanium alloy, copper-aluminum alloy, plastic, etc., which are suitable for various media and environments. Due to the good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of the material, stainless steel ball valves are widely used in chemical, petroleum, food, pharmaceutical and other industries. The plastic ball valve is suitable for some medium and low pressure and small diameter pipeline systems due to its light weight and affordable price.
