FAQs (Frequently asked questions)
Find detailed answers to common questions about Forged Ball valves in our Knowledge centre.
It is a type of quarter turn ball valve manufactured by heating the steel under extreme temperature and then shaping it by extreme mechanical pressure. This process eliminates the defects which are commonly associated with casting valves such porosity, sand inclusions, and shrinking.
These valves are widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries where safety and reliability are non-negotiable.
