Characteristic Description
Material Composition
The UPVC body is durable and easy to clean, the TPE seat seal is replaceable without specialized tools, and the PP ball ensures long-term smooth operation. The ABS handle is designed for quick detachment, and the NBR O-ring is readily available as a replacement part, minimizing maintenance costs.
Structural Design
The ball valve’s standout structural feature is its detachable handle, which simplifies repairs and part replacements. It offers octagonal and compact shapes, plus threaded and socket connections, to fit various systems. By placing the O-ring inside the valve body (instead of the handle), the design ensures that sealing components remain stable during maintenance, avoiding accidental damage to critical parts.
Market Research
Businesses across industries are increasingly focused on reducing maintenance downtime and costs, driving demand for easy-to-repair fluid control valves. Industrial facilities, in particular, value valves that can be serviced on-site without disassembling entire pipelines. The European and North American industrial markets prioritize maintenance efficiency, while Asian manufacturing sectors seek cost-effective replacement parts. This valve’s detachable handle, replaceable components, and customizable design directly address these pain points, gaining traction in global industrial markets.
Key Features
Tool-Free Handle Removal: The handle can be detached in seconds, allowing quick access to internal components for repairs or O-ring replacement.
Replaceable Sealing Components: NBR O-rings and TPE seat seals are standard replacement parts, available at low cost and easy to install.
Damage-Resistant Structure: Mold-assembled sealing components reduce the risk of misalignment during maintenance, ensuring consistent performance post-repair.
Lightweight Torque Operation: For sizes 2.5" and above, optimized torque design makes handle rotation smooth, even after repeated maintenance.
Performance Meets
Compliant with ASTM, DIN, JIS, and BS standards, this ball valve maintains reliable performance even after multiple repairs. It withstands 16pn equivalent pressure, with sealing integrity unaffected by handle removal or part replacement. The materials are resistant to wear and tear from maintenance, ensuring a long service life. It performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, adapting to temperature fluctuations and humid conditions.

FAQ
Q1: How long does PVC Ball Valve take to replace the O-ring?
A1: With the detachable handle, O-ring replacement takes less than 5 minutes—no tools required. Simply remove the handle, replace the O-ring, and reattach the handle.
Q2: Can I order replacement parts separately?
A2: Yes. We supply individual replacement parts (O-rings, handles, seat seals) and bulk part kits. Contact our sales team with your valve model for exact part matching.
Q3: Will repeated handle removal affect the PVC Ball Valve's performance?
A3: No. The valve’s structure is designed for frequent handle detachment, with no impact on sealing or pressure resistance. All components are tested for durability under repeated maintenance.
