ASTM True Union Ball Valve | PN10-PN16 Pressure Rated

The double union ball valve (ASTM Series) is a critical solution for high-performance fluid management in agricultural and industrial environments. Specifically designed for ASTM series pipes measured in inches (Sch 40/80), this valve utilizes a dual-union nut system. This architectural advantage allows operators to remove the center body for cleaning or maintenance while the surrounding piping remains fixed in place. The unit features a distinct blue handle and is optimized for total compatibility with standard inch-based pumps, filters, and manifolds.

Features

• U-PVC Construction: The body, ball, and handle are manufactured from high-impact U-PVC, providing resistance to corrosion, saline water, and industrial acids.
• Sealing Technology: Internally, the valve is equipped with high-grade EPDM O-rings and PTFE seats for low-friction operation and an airtight seal.
• Thermal Resistance: These materials are selected to withstand temperatures up to 60%, ensuring the valve does not seize under direct sunlight.
• Performance and Efficiency: The valve features a full-port design to minimize turbulence and pressure loss. This optimizes pumping efficiency, protecting systems from unnecessary back-pressure. Pressure integrity is maintained with ratings from PN10 to PN16 depending on the specific diameter.
