What is a 1″ Ball Valve?
ZECO 1″ Ball Valves are ideal for throttling and balancing of nonabrasive fluids where minimum flow is 20% to 100% of valve capacity. The full port design ensures minimal pressure drop. These valves feature a PTFE stem packing seal, thrust washer, and seat. They are available with tapped outlets suitable for the installation of a pressure gauge or test cock. Maximum working pressure: 600psi (41.3 bar) WOG; 125psi (8.6 bar) WSP.
