Brass Ball Valves

Brass ball valves are widely used flow control devices known for their durability, versatility, and reliability in regulating fluid flow. These valves feature a spherical disc or ball with a hole (bore) through its center that rotates within a valve body to control the flow of fluid. When the valve is open, the bore aligns with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through. Rotating the handle or lever attached to the ball 90 degrees closes the valve, blocking the flow. The construction of brass ball valves typically includes a brass body, ball, stem, and handle. Brass is chosen for its corrosion resistance, making brass ball valves suitable for use in various environments and applications. Additionally, brass offers excellent machinability, allowing for precise manufacturing of valve components.
