Ball Valves

Ball valves are mainly used when fast operation is required in the oil & gas

petrochemical nuclear and power plants.

Valvometal ball valves are known for being durable, performing well after many cycles, and reliable. These qualities make them an excellent choice for shut-off and control applications requiring fast action.

Ball valves are often the preferred choice, as opposed to gate and globe valves, when speed is necessary.

Design
