A ball valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that uses a rotating ball with a bore to control the flow of fluids. The ball has a hole through its center, and when the valve is open, the hole is aligned with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through. When the valve is closed, the ball is rotated 90 degrees to block the flow. Ball valves are widely used in various industries for their reliability, ease of operation, and ability to provide tight shut-off. They are suitable for applications ranging from residential plumbing to industrial processes, offering efficient and straightforward flow control.

• - It has single turn on / off mechanisms to ensure it is either open or closed.
• - Allows 100% opening or closure due to its special steel ball mechanism.
