Product Overview
Externally threaded ball valve is a key component widely used in fluid control systems. It has excellent flow control capabilities and sealing performance and is widely used in a variety of industrial and commercial fields. The external thread design makes it easy and quick to install and maintain, and is suitable for working in various complex use environments.
Features of externally threaded ball valves
– Efficient flow control: The externally threaded ball valve achieves rapid opening and closing of the flow through a simple quarter-turn operation. If an electric and pneumatic actuator is used, it provides precise flow regulation capabilities in combination with the control system.
– Excellent sealing performance: The tight fit between the ball and the valve seat ensures reliable sealing (zero leakage) under high and low pressure conditions, minimizing the risk of leakage.
– Durability: Made of carbon steel, stainless steel, copper and other materials, the corresponding materials are selected according to different media characteristics.
– Easy to install and maintain: The external thread design simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the valve, reducing maintenance costs and time.
Advantages of threaded connection
– Convenient and fast: Threaded connection does not require welding or complex tools, and the installation process is fast and simple, which is very suitable for systems that need to be frequently disassembled and repaired.
– Economical and practical: Threaded connection can save a lot of installation and maintenance costs, and is suitable for projects with limited economic budgets.
– Wide applicability: Suitable for various applications from low pressure to high pressure, providing flexible system integration and connection solutions.
– Reliable sealing: The thread design ensures a tight seal at the connection, providing system safety and reliability.
Threaded connection type
Externally threaded ball valves provide a variety of thread forms to meet different standards and application requirements:
– NPT (National Pipe Thread): This tapered thread is widely used in the United States and Canada, providing reliable sealing performance, and is commonly used in industries such as oil and gas.
– BSP (British Standard Pipe): Including BSPT and BSPP, BSP threads are widely used around the world and are suitable for a variety of industrial applications.
– BSPT (British Standard Pipe Tapered): Relies on the taper of the thread to achieve sealing, suitable for high-pressure environments that require tight connections.
– BSPP (British Standard Pipe Parallel): Sealing is achieved through O-rings or washers, suitable for applications that require seals.
– Metric Thread: Metric threads are often used in applications that require high precision and are compatible with metric standard equipment and systems.
– G Thread: Similar to BSPP, it is a straight thread that is sealed by a washers or O-rings and is often used in liquid and gas pipelines that require good sealing performance.
Externally threaded ball valves combine efficient flow control capabilities, convenient installation and maintenance, and a wide range of applications, making them an ideal choice for various fluid control systems. Whether in industrial, commercial or residential applications, externally threaded ball valves can provide excellent performance and reliability.
