ball valve teflon seat

Ever wondered, how ball valves work? Ball valves are critical instruments that realize their uses in a wide range of places, from your home to industrial processes. They are commonly used for the flow control of liquids or gas. BALL VALVES The mechanism used by these valves is special which contains a ball having hole in them. Loose ball There is a hole in the top of this piece that lines up with pipe under it; when the ball turns, as illustrated above right, either liquid or gas will flow freely along its path (exemplified by circle) if opening matches perfectly and have nothing obstructing it. Ball Valves Ball valves are extremely versatile for many applications because of their straightforward design.

So when the valve needs to be closed, you may ask how on Earth does it not leak. This what the Teflon seat is forALLOC........ A Teflon seat is a little ring of PTFE plastic (which makes it an elastomeric, or rubbery material). PTFE stands for polytetrafluoroethylene but let us imagine this is just a fancy name of plastic that does not stick to anything at all! This is of critical importance in this contrived characteristics. In a ball valves, they offer tight leakage around the closed valve so that nothing depending upon liquid or gas is able to seep out of it.

Superior PTFE Technology for Ball Valves

Interestingly, PTFE was accidentally discovered. It’s true! Back in 1930s a chemist at DuPont company was looking for to help create cool breakszeit new refrigerant gas. Instead of creating the gas he hoped for, however, it yielded a white waxy substance that could not be dissolved in anything! Unbeknownst to Perkins, this peculiar sludge was the world's very first PTFE and would eventually rise as one of the most ubiquitous brand name polymers with brands like Teflon.

The material is now used every day in many products, including those non-stick frying pans that help you cook and wash up!

Teflon seats are currently recognized as an industry standard for sealing ball valves due to their unique characteristics with very good overall performance. This is why they are preferred over a wide range of application industries.
