Description
Spears® True Union Ball Valve, Regular Style, 6 in Nominal, Venturied Socket, 150 psi, 73 deg F, PVC Ball, 26-1/16 in Inlet to Outlet Length, 6-3/4 in Top to Inlet Center, PVC Body, PVC Stem and PTFE Seat Trim, EPDM/PVC Softgoods, Gray, Domestic
Features:
- Heavy bodied PVC construction - Spears® true union ball valves never rust, scale or pit, providing exceptional chemical and corrosion resistance
- Buttress threaded double union nuts - Strong buttress type threads on union nuts and seal carriers allow higher pressure handling capability and quick in-line installation and servicing
- Safe-T-Block seal carrier - Stops flow in either direction, allowing safe removal of the downstream union nut for system service or modification
- PTFE ball seats - Spears® PTFE floating seat design reduces seat wear for extended valve life, smooth operation and bubble-tight shutoff, 100% factory tested
- Choice of high grade, abrasion resistant EPDM elastomer O-Rings allows application specific selection for optimum chemical resistance
- High impact polypropylene handle - Features double stop engagement and exhibits excellent resistance to most chemical environments
- Safe-T-Shear® Stem - Developed to help prevent line fluids from leaking out in the event of ball valve stem damage
- Engineered for high strength, the stem incorporates a special shear point to control accidental breakage
- Over torqueing breaks occur above the stem O-Ring leaving the seal intact until repair or replacement can be made
- Full SCH 80/XH bore - in full open position, full bore virtually eliminates pressure drop, providing optimum flow
- Suitable for vacuum service - Spears® true union ball valves are tested at 26 in Hg vacuum for 1 hr with less than 1 in Hg loss
- Fully repairable - Convenient Seat and O-Ring replacement kits or full cartridge replacement kits for easy ordering, servicing and extended valve life
