Manual Ball Valves in PVC, CPVC, PVDF & Polypro
Design Advantages:- Heavy-duty, extra-large diameter shaft is reinforced by additional resin and eliminates stem breaks.
- Double shaft O-rings.
- PTFE shaft bearing eliminates friction and wear.
- PTFE seats backed up with O-rings reduce the wear and tear of repeated cycling.
- Trunnion Design: Upper and lower supports retain ball under pressure. Trunnion design allows multi-directional flow; means that the valve is in no danger of being installed "backwards."
- Concentric machined and mirror-polished ball.
- Dual sliding seats use triple O-rings for balance and maximum leak protection.
- Smooth flow path eliminates pressure loss.
- True union ends for ease of piping and removal.

- Available with NPT threaded connections, sockets, flanges (except PVDF), metric, or BSP.
- Install as manual valve today, add an actuator tomorrow with no special kits or modifications...True Blue electric or pneumatic actuators can be added in about a minute!
- Metering Valve available, Series MBVM
- Lockout Handle available, Series MBVL
- Stem Extensions available, Series MBVSE
- Sanitary Connections available, see below
3" and 4" sizes have slightly different features and specifications. Three-way ball valves available in PVC and CPVC, manual or actuated. Vented Ball Valves available for sodium hypochlorite.
Dimensions & Specifications:
**For weight in CPVC, multiply by 1.1, for polypro multiply by .66 and for PVDF multiply by 1.3.
