Function
The Ball Cock Valve operates by using a rotating ball with a central hole to regulate fluid flow. When the valve handle is turned, the ball rotates 90°, either opening or closing the flow passage. This full-bore design allows for maximum flow with minimal pressure drop when the valve is open.
When in the closed position, the ball seals tightly against the valve seat, ensuring that no fluid passes through, making it ideal for on/off control applications. The ball cock valve is widely used in water supply systems, plumbing systems, and various industrial fluid control applications where precise, reliable flow regulation is required.
The Ball Cock Valve features a rotating ball with a central hole through which the fluid flows when the valve is open. By turning the valve handle, the ball rotates to either allow or shut off the flow. Its reliable sealing system and full-bore design ensure high performance with minimal pressure drop. The valve is typically constructed from brass, stainless steel, or plastic, providing a corrosion-resistant solution for fluid regulation.
