Válvula de bola - Ball valves

Floating Ball Valves

Floating ball valves are among the most widely used quarter-turn valves for shutting off flow in piping systems. They operate with a perforated ball that rotates to either allow or block fluid passage. When the valve is open, the hole aligns with the flow path, enabling fluid to pass through; when closed, the solid side of the ball blocks the passage, stopping the flow completely.

A key advantage of floating ball valves is their ability to seal in both directions, making them ideal for applications in oil, gas, water, chemical processing, and other demanding industries.

Redfluid Ball Valve Ranges

At Redfluid, we offer two main product families designed for different pressure requirements:

  • Series 20 (S20): High-pressure valves rated at PN140, PN350, PN500, up to 2500 bar.
  • Series 10 (S10): Suitable for operating pressures up to 64 bar.

Sizes and Connection Types

We supply a wide range of valve sizes from 1/8″ to 4″, with several connection options available to suit different systems:

  • Threaded: BSP, NPT
  • Welded: Butt Weld (BW), Socket Weld (SW)
  • Flanged: According to international standards
  • Other: SAE J1926, DIN 2353, and more
