Ductile Iron Threaded Ball Valves

A ductile iron threaded ball valve is a threaded isolation valve with a three-piece ductile iron body and solid stainless steel ball that works at pressures and temperatures beyond brass limits. The centre body can be removed for service while the ends stay on the pipe.
General-purpose models are offered from ½” to 2½” in PN16, PN25 and PN40 classes and used on water, high-temperature water, compressed air and industrial gases between −10 °C and +200 °C. The top flange allows an actuator to be fitted later.
Main Applications
- High-temperature and hot water lines
- Compressed air and industrial gas lines
- Pump and heat exchanger service valves
- Boiler room distribution lines
- Mid-size lines to be automated later

Which material? Ductile iron withstands impact and pressure surges better than cast iron; a ductile body is preferred on high-temperature water and vibrating lines. The temperature-dependent pressure rating is confirmed from the product datasheet.
