What is a welded ball valve?

Yesterday, a batch of welded ball valves from Jinbin Valve was packaged and dispatched.

The fully welding ball valve is a type of ball valve with an integral fully welded ball valve body structure. It achieves the on-off of the medium by rotating the ball 90° around the valve stem axis. Its core feature is that all components of the valve body are connected as a whole through welding technology, without detachable connection structures such as flanges or threads. Its sealing performance and structural strength are significantly better than those of traditional connection forms of ball valves. It is suitable for the transportation scenarios of media such as water, gas, oil and various corrosive fluids.

The advantages of fully welded ball valve Industry is mainly reflected in three aspects:

1. It has extremely strong sealing performance.

Due to the absence of a flange-connected sealing surface, it avoids the leakage risks caused by loose bolts and aging sealing parts in traditional flanged ball valves, making it particularly suitable for safety requirements when transporting flammable, explosive, toxic or high-pressure media.

2. The structure is solid and reliable.

The overall welded structure has outstanding impact resistance and vibration resistance, and can adapt to high pressure (up to 10MPa and above), high temperature (-29℃ to 300℃), underground and humid and other harsh environments. Its stability is far superior to that of split valve bodies.

Third, the maintenance cost is low. The welded structure reduces vulnerable parts and does not require frequent tightening of bolts. Its service life can reach several decades, significantly lowering the frequency of later maintenance and downtime costs. At the same time, the compact design can also save installation space.

The common scenarios of fully welded ball valves are mainly concentrated in fields with extremely high requirements for sealing performance, safety and long-term stability(Ball Valve Application):

In long-distance oil and gas pipelines, it is a core control component for underground laying, capable of withstanding soil corrosion and geological changes, ensuring the safety of long-distance oil and gas transportation.

In urban gas and centralized heating networks, its high-pressure resistance and low leakage characteristics can effectively reduce energy loss and safety risks.

In the process pipelines of the petrochemical and chemical industries, it is suitable for transporting corrosive, flammable and explosive media, meeting the requirements of harsh working conditions.

In addition, it is also widely applied in high-pressure water transmission pipelines of water conservancy projects and special fluid transportation systems in the new energy field due to its strong reliability.
