Floating Ball Valves

Two-Piece Bolted Design

In the floating valve the ball is not rigidly held on its rotational axis and so is free to float between seats. Sealing occurs through pressure action pushing the ball against a seat. The body features a two-piece bolted construction made from forged or rolled bar materials. Produced by TIV Valves, a Pietro Fiorentini Group company, these valves are Hydrogen Ready for NG-H2 blending applications.
