ValvesOnly are reputed Floating Ball Valve Manufacturers in USA. Floating ball valves are quarter-turn valves used to control fluid flow in pipelines. Their key feature is the "floating" ball, which is not fixed but moves between two resilient seats, typically made from PTFE or elastomers. When open, the fluid holds the ball in place, allowing free movement. In the closed position, the ball presses against the seats, forming a tight seal to stop fluid flow.
Operation:
When open, the ball allows fluid to pass through the pipeline. To close, the valve handle or actuator rotates the stem, pivoting the ball towards the seats. The pressure from the ball against the seats creates a secure seal, ensuring no fluid passes through. Floating ball valves are favored for their reliability, ease of operation, and ability to manage high-pressure and high-temperature conditions, making them suitable for many industries.
