Description
Single Piece Screwed Ball Valve
Compact Threaded Ball Valve for Low-Pressure Industrial Applications
Single Piece Screwed Ball Valve is a compact, economical, and reliable valve designed for low-pressure threaded piping systems where space efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and ease of installation are critical.
At MNC Valves, these valves are engineered to provide dependable shut-off performance in utility, water, air, and light industrial applications where threaded connections are preferred over flanged systems.
Key Features of Single Piece Screwed Ball Valve
- Compact one-piece body design
- Screwed (threaded) end connections
- Quarter-turn operation for quick opening and closing
- Bubble-tight shut-off performance
- Low maintenance requirement
- Lightweight and easy to install
- Cost-effective solution for small bore piping systems
Working Principle
Single Piece Screwed Ball Valve operates using a spherical ball with a bore. When the handle is rotated 90 degrees, the bore aligns with the pipeline allowing flow. When rotated back, the solid portion of the ball blocks the flow completely.
This simple mechanism ensures:
- Fast operation
- Reliable sealing
- Minimal pressure drop
Applications
Single Piece Screwed Ball Valves are widely used in:
- Water distribution systems
- Compressed air lines
- Utility pipelines
- Low-pressure chemical service
- HVAC systems
- Instrumentation lines
- Small bore piping systems
Where Not Recommended
For proper engineering selection, these valves are not recommended for:
- High-pressure systems
- High-temperature service
- Critical process isolation
- Heavy slurry or abrasive media
In such cases, two-piece or three-piece ball valves are more suitable.
