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.

Thermoplastic [PVC, Corzan CPVC, Polypropylene, or Kynar PVDF] manual ball valve with PTFE seats preloaded with [EPDM or Viton] O-rings and [3/8" through 2", socket or threaded] end connectors that are machined flat on the side that seals against an o-ring. The valve is to have a trunnion ball design with the ball being spherically machined to assure it is not out of round and polished to a smooth finish. Dual o-ring seals and a PTFE thrust bearing will be installed on the large diameter solid actuating shaft. The valve will have mounting lugs on the outer body. All units are to be 100% individually tested at the factory. As manufactured by Plast-O-Matic Valves, Inc., Cedar Grove, NJ.
