This 3/8 in. T316 stainless steel full port ball valve is a reliable and efficient solution for various applications, including air, gas, liquid, and steam systems. Its full port design ensures minimal friction and maximum flow, making it ideal for high-pressure situations up to 1000 PSI. The valve's durable construction and corrosion-resistant stainless steel material guarantee long-lasting performance. With a manual handle for easy operation, this valve is perfect for use in industrial settings, laboratories, and other environments where precise control over fluid flow is crucial. Its compact size and robust build make it a valuable addition to any fluid handling system.

3/8 in. T316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh environments.
The valve is a full port design, allowing for minimal pressure drop and reduced flow restriction.
The ball valve uses a spherical disc to control flow between pipes, tubes, or hoses with a simple 90-degree turn.
3/8 in. T316 stainless steel full port ball valve - 3 piece - 1000 psi ball valves use a spherical disc to control the flow between pipes tubes or hoses. Flow is allowed when the hole that pierces the ball-shaped disc is in line with the inlet and outlet of the valve. Flow is blocked when the ball is horizontally swiveled 90 degrees so that the hole of the ball is perpendicular to the opening of the valve. Ball valves can be referred to as full port or reduced port (also known as regular or standard port) depending on the inner diameter of the valve. A ball valve is full port if the hole of the ball is the same size as the inner diameter of the connecting pipeline (resulting in lower friction) and is reduced port if the hole of the valve is one pipe size smaller than the pipe resulting in less flow through the valve than through the shaft of the pipe. Ball valves may have a handle or lever that aligns with the ball's position (open or closed) for manual operation. They are primarily used in air gas liquid and steam applications.
