Features

  • Frontiers Model S and B ball valves are produced as either a two-piece or three-piece design that are either a threaded or bolt-together concept to facilitate field repairs and maintenance.
  • The ball is the shut-off element due to being aligned to the bore by the seats.
  • Ball travel is controlled by a stop pin or capscrew and valve stop or handle.
  • Blow-out proof stem is positively retained by body.
  • The thrust washer between the stem and body ensures lower turning torque while providing a secondary seal.
  • Packing is also adjustable by means of spring washers and/or handle nuts.
  • O-rings between seats and body provide sealing at low pressures. O-rings are placed ahead of body-cap threads providing a tight seal and protection of threads from flow media assuring ease of maintenance.
  • Model S and B ball valves have an anti-static spring feature (Optional).
  • Full material traceability.
  • Exotic materials as per request.
