Custom Fabrication for Ball Valve Components and Systems


Vcore Valve supports customized ball valve selection for industrial shut-off, automation, high-pressure, high-temperature and corrosion-resistant applications. Our team can help review your working media, pressure, temperature, valve size, connection standard, operation method and installation requirements before recommending a suitable ball valve type.

Available customization options may include valve structure selection, body material selection, seat material selection, flange standard confirmation, actuator matching, pressure testing and project documentation support.

How to Choose Ball Valve Types

Different ball valve structures are suitable for different pressure ratings, pipeline sizes, media conditions and control requirements. Selecting the correct ball valve type helps improve sealing reliability, operation safety and service life.

For general shut-off service, floating ball valves are commonly selected. For large-diameter or high-pressure pipelines, trunnion mounted ball valves are more suitable. For flow diversion or mixing, three-way ball valves can be selected. For automation, electric or pneumatic ball valves are commonly used.

FAQ of Vcore Ball Valves

 

1. What are ball valves used for?

Ball valves are used for fast shut-off, pipeline isolation, low-pressure-drop flow control and automated on/off operation in industrial pipeline systems.

2. What ball valve types can Vcore Valve supply?

Vcore Valve can supply floating ball valves, trunnion mounted ball valves, three-way ball valves, welded ball valves, V-port ball valves, electric ball valves, pneumatic ball valves and customized ball valve solutions.

3. How do I choose the right ball valve type?

Ball valve selection depends on working media, pressure, temperature, valve size, flow control requirement, connection standard, seat material and operation method.

4. What is the difference between floating and trunnion mounted ball valves?

Floating ball valves are commonly used for small and medium-size pipelines and moderate pressure service. Trunnion mounted ball valves are more suitable for large diameter, high-pressure or oil and gas pipeline applications.

5. Can ball valves be used for flow regulation?

Standard ball valves are mainly used for on/off service. For better flow regulation, V-port ball valves, segment ball valves, globe valves or control valves may be more suitable.

6. Can ball valves be automated?

Yes. Ball valves can be supplied with electric actuators, pneumatic actuators, gearboxes or manual operators according to automation and site operation requirements.

7. What information should I provide for quotation?

Please provide valve type, size, pressure class, body material, seat material, connection standard, working media, temperature, operation method and quantity.
