Floating Ball Valve Manufacturer

A Floating Ball Valve is a quarter-turn isolation valve in which the ball is not fixed by a trunnion. Under upstream pressure, the ball moves slightly toward the downstream seat, creating the required contact pressure for reliable sealing. This simple design makes floating ball valves suitable for a wide range of low- and medium-pressure pipeline and process applications.

Metallum Overseas manufactures floating ball valves with robust two-piece body construction, floating ball arrangements and soft or metal seating options. The valve design and materials can be selected according to operating pressure, temperature, fluid characteristics and project specifications.

Side Entry Floating Ball Valves

Side-entry floating ball valves are designed for practical installation and maintenance in pipeline and process systems. The ball is supported by the valve seats rather than by a separate trunnion arrangement, while the stem provides quarter-turn operation for opening and closing the valve.

Depending on the application, floating ball valves can be supplied with bidirectional tight shut-off, anti-blowout stem construction, anti-static devices, secondary graphite sealing and low fugitive emission packing. Soft-seated and metal-seated configurations can be selected according to service conditions.

Forged Floating Ball Valves for Industrial Applications

Forged floating ball valves provide a strong and compact body construction for industrial isolation applications. Two-piece bolted body designs can be supplied in suitable materials and pressure classes according to valve size and project requirements.

Floating ball valves can also be configured for corrosive, abrasive and demanding industrial media by selecting suitable body materials, seat materials, sealing systems and internal components. Manual wrench or gear operation can be provided, with actuation available according to project requirements.

Floating Ball Valve FAQs

What is a floating ball valve?

A floating ball valve is a quarter-turn isolation valve in which the ball is not fixed by a trunnion. The ball moves slightly under fluid pressure and presses against the downstream seat to create a tight seal.

How does a floating ball valve work?

When the valve is closed, upstream pressure pushes the floating ball toward the downstream seat. This creates sealing contact between the ball and seat and helps provide tight shut-off.

What is the difference between a floating ball valve and a trunnion ball valve?

A floating ball valve allows the ball to move slightly under pressure and is generally suited to smaller and medium valve sizes. A trunnion-mounted ball valve uses fixed upper and lower supports and is commonly selected for larger sizes and higher-pressure applications.

What sizes are available for floating ball valves?

Floating ball valves can be supplied in different sizes depending on the valve design. The referenced design covers NPS 1/2 to NPS 6 (DN 15 to DN 150).

What pressure classes are available?

Floating ball valves can be supplied in different pressure classes. The referenced design covers ASME Class 150 to Class 2500, subject to valve size, materials and design requirements.

Are floating ball valves available with metal seats?

Yes. Floating ball valves can be manufactured with metal seats and suitable hard-facing on the ball and seat surfaces for selected demanding applications.

What materials are available for floating ball valves?

Carbon steel, low-temperature carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex, super duplex, Cr-Mo alloy steel, Monel, Hastelloy, Inconel and other suitable alloys can be considered according to pressure, temperature, media and corrosion requirements.

Are floating ball valves available with fire-safe features?

Yes. Fire-safe configurations and testing can be provided where specified by the application and applicable project requirements.

Can floating ball valves be automated?

Yes. Floating ball valves can be supplied with suitable actuation arrangements according to valve size, operating torque and project requirements.

Can floating ball valves be customized?

Yes. Valve size, pressure class, body material, seat material, end connection, sealing arrangement, operation and other specifications can be selected according to project requirements.
