A 1-Piece Ball Valve (1P Ball Valve) features a compact body manufactured as a single main housing containing the ball and seat assembly. This simple construction provides a robust and cost-effective solution for applications requiring dependable shut-off.
The valve operates through a 90-degree quarter turn of the lever. In the open position, the bore through the ball aligns with the pipeline to allow media to flow. Turning the handle through 90 degrees rotates the ball to close the flow path and isolate the pipeline.
The pictured INVAL model features manual lever operation and female threaded connections, providing a compact solution particularly suited to smaller-bore industrial piping and general plant applications.
