Middleeast valve is the greatest Forged steel ball valve supplier in UAE. We supply to cities like Muscat, Salalah, Sohar, and Khasab.
A forged steel ball valve is a type of valve that is manufactured through a forging process, where the valve body and other components are shaped by applying pressure to heated steel. This forging process creates a strong and durable valve suitable for various industrial applications where high pressure and temperature conditions are present.
Here's a step-by-step explanation of how it works:
- Valve Structure:
The valve consists of a valve body, a ball (usually made of stainless steel), a stem, seats, seals, and end connections.
- Flow Control:
In the closed position, the ball blocks the flow path, preventing the medium from passing through the valve.
In the open position, the ball is rotated by turning the stem, aligning the bore of the ball with the pipeline, allowing the medium to flow through.
- Rotation Mechanism:
The stem is connected to the ball and extends outside the valve body.
Rotating the stem in a particular direction (usually 90 degrees) rotates the ball, either blocking or allowing the flow of the medium.
- Sealing:
When the valve is closed, the ball's sealing surfaces, known as seats, come into contact to provide a tight seal and prevent any leakage.
The seats are often made of materials like PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or other suitable sealing materials.
Suppliers in the UAE offer robust Forged Steel Ball Valve engineered to endure extreme pressures, temperatures, and corrosive conditions, ensuring their applicability across diverse environments and applications.
