Introducing the RS PRO general purpose manual ball valve designed for industrial applications. Manual ball valves are used to operate shut off valves which control water flow and pressure.
Ball valves can be used for air, gases, water, steam, chemicals, petrochemical products, etc. These valves are simple to use, you move the handle by a quarter of a turn to open or close the valve. Stainless steel ball valves are used due to the materials resistance to corrosion and often found in aggressive environments.
Stainless steel - superior corrosion resistance, ideal for demanding applications with high temperatures
Suited to higher pressure and temperature applications
