GROVE Ball valve - API 6D Ball Manufacturer

What is a GROVE Ball Valve?

The GROVE valve is constructed of forged components bolted together in a side-entry design. The standard designs are ideal for transmission and standard production operations. This design also allows for specialty configurations required in applications such as subsea installation and LNG plants.

Applications of GROVE Ball Valves

The Split Body Side Entry Ball Valves are manufactured in a wide range of diameters and
pressure classes.

In the standard versions, the valves are specified for transmission pipelines, pumping, compression and re-injection units, offshore platforms, onshore
terminals, pig traps, measuring stations, and surge relief skids.

In the special versions, the valves are used for subsea installations and in LNG plants.

Split body construction allows the use of forged materials in various grades of carbon steel, stainless steel, and high alloys thus complying with the most severe service conditions.
