HJ designed a new type of ball valve.
Compared with the traditional structure, the UPVC ball valve seals the O - ring inside the ball valve body instead of inside the handle. This makes the ball valve more reliable as all the sealed parts are assembled together by mould.
Another advantage is that the UPVC ball valve can have its handle removed easily, which makes repair much more convenient.
1. It is easy to change the handle.
2. It is easy to add an extra O - ring seal between the handle and the body in case the ball valve leaks.

Characteristic Description
Basic Specifications
The HJ PVC Ball Valve (PVC Ball Vave) covers a versatile size range from 1/2" to 8", catering to diverse piping requirements. It offers two distinct shape options to fit different installation scenarios: the octagonal ball valve for stable operation and the compact ball valve for space-constrained environments. For connection flexibility, users can choose between threaded connection (ideal for secure, detachable joints) and socket connection (perfect for seamless, leak-proof assembly).
Material Composition
Every component of the PVC Ball Vave is selected for optimal performance and longevity:
Body: Made of UPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride), ensuring corrosion resistance, high pressure tolerance, and compatibility with most fluids.
Seat Seal: TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) provides excellent sealing performance and wear resistance.
Ball: PP (Polypropylene) offers chemical stability and smooth operation.
Handle: ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) delivers a sturdy, ergonomic grip for easy operation.
O-ring Seal: NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) enhances leak prevention with superior elasticity.
Market Research
Target Industry Demand
The global PVC ball valve market is driven by the growing need for efficient fluid control in sectors like water treatment, chemical processing, construction, and agriculture. Industries prioritize valves that are corrosion-resistant, easy to maintain, and compliant with international standards—all features that the PVC Ball Vave embodies. Residential and commercial buildings also demand reliable valves for plumbing systems, where the compact design and leak-proof performance of HJ’s PVC Ball Vave gain significant traction.
Competitive Edge in the Market
Unlike generic PVC ball valves, the PVC Ball Vave addresses key pain points of users: frequent leaks, difficult maintenance, and stiff operation. Its innovative sealed design and easy-to-remove handle fill the gap in the market for low-maintenance, high-reliability valves. With compliance to multiple international standards, it meets the requirements of global markets, from North America (ASTM) to Europe (DIN) and Asia (JIS, BS).
Key Features
Innovative Sealing Design
HJ reimagines the traditional ball valve structure by integrating the O-ring seal within the valve body rather than the handle assembly. All sealed components are molded and assembled as a single unit, eliminating the risk of loose parts and enhancing overall reliability. This design significantly reduces leakage issues common in conventional valves.
Effortless Maintenance
The PVC Ball Vave features a detachable handle that simplifies maintenance and repairs. Users can easily replace the handle if damaged, or add an extra O-ring seal between the handle and body to address potential leaks—no complex tools or professional skills required. This saves time and costs for both installers and end-users.
Smooth Operation for Large Sizes
For valves 2.5" and larger, HJ has upgraded the mold design to enable bidirectional opening. This not only expands installation flexibility but also reduces torque requirements. The handle turns smoothly, even for larger valves, making operation effortless and reducing user fatigue.
Performance Meets
International Standard Compliance
The PVC Ball Vave adheres to stringent international standards, including ASTM, DIN, JIS, and BS. This ensures compatibility with global piping systems and guarantees that the product meets the highest quality and safety benchmarks for fluid control.
Rigorous Leakage & Pressure Testing
Every unit of the PVC Ball Vave undergoes a strict quality inspection before packaging. The valve is injected with high-pressure air equivalent to 16pn water pressure, and the pressure is maintained until the next day to detect any potential leaks. This rigorous testing process ensures that only leak-proof, high-performance valves reach customers.

FAQ
What fluids is the PVC Ball Vave compatible with?
The valve is suitable for most non-corrosive fluids, including water, mild chemicals, and neutral liquids. It is ideal for water treatment, plumbing, and general industrial fluid control. For aggressive chemicals, contact our technical team for compatibility confirmation.
How do I maintain the PVC Ball Vave?
Maintenance is simple: the detachable handle allows easy replacement or inspection. If leakage occurs, add an extra NBR O-ring seal between the handle and body. Regularly clean the valve surface to prevent dust accumulation, and avoid using sharp tools that may damage the UPVC body.
Can the valve be installed in both directions?
Valves 2.5" and larger support bidirectional opening, offering flexible installation. Smaller sizes (1/2" to 2") are designed for unidirectional operation—please refer to the product manual for correct installation orientation.
Is the PVC Ball Vave suitable for high-pressure applications?
Yes. The valve is tested to withstand 16pn water pressure (equivalent to high-pressure air testing) and is suitable for most medium-pressure fluid control systems. Always check the pressure rating of your specific size before use.
