Products/Services for FM Approved Ball Valves

  • Ball Valves-Image
    Ball Valves - (2115 companies)
    Ball valves are quarter-turn, straight-through valves that have a round closure element with matching rounded seats that permit uniform sealing stress. The valve gets its name from the ball that rotates to open...
  • Ball Bearings-Image
    Ball Bearings - (766 companies)
    Ball bearings are used to provide smooth, low friction motion in rotary applications. Ball bearings types include radial ball bearings (deep groove and angular contact) and thrust ball bearings. Ball bearings are used to provide smooth, low friction...
  • Butterfly Valves-Image
    Butterfly Valves - (1270 companies)
    ...little resistance to flow. These valves offer a rotary stem movement of 90 degrees or less, in a compact design. Unlike ball valves, butterfly valves do not have any pockets in which fluids may become trapped when the valve is closed. The valve operation...
  • Solenoid Valves-Image
    Solenoid Valves - (1022 companies)
    Solenoid valves are devices that use a solenoid to control valve activation. They are considered electromechanical control devices used to control liquid or gas flow. An electrical current runs through a coil to control the valve by moving a plunger...
  • Check Valves-Image
    Check Valves - (1952 companies)
    The mechanics of check valve operation are relatively simple. Most check valves contain a ball that sits freely above the seat, which has only one through-hole. The ball has a slightly larger diameter than that of the through-hole. When the pressure behind...

    Gas Valves - (535 companies)
    ...requirements. Gas valves are available in most of the basic valve technologies such as ball, butterfly, plug, needle, and various check valve designs. They are used in many industrial, commercial and residential applications for on/off, modulating, and control...
  •  
    Radios - (369 companies)
    Radios are communication systems that send and/or receive electromagnetic waves. Devices such as citizens ' band (CB) radios, walkie-talkies, and handie-talkies are two-way radios that can be used for interpersonal communications.
  •  
    Ball Slides - (100 companies)
    ...specific ratings, which state that they are approved for specific applications. Two of the most common ratings are cleanroom certified and vacuum rated. Cleanroom certified ball slides meet or exceed the requirements needed for use in cleanroom environments...
  •  
    Valve Actuators - (914 companies)
    ...motion and operation style are important specifications to consider when selecting valve actuators. Valve Method of Control. Rotary motion valves (rotary valves) such as ball, plug, and butterfly valves rotate a quarter-turn or more from open to close...
  •  
    Hydraulic Valves - (684 companies)
    Hydraulic valves contain and transfer the flow and pressure of hydraulic fluid in hydraulic power systems. They range from simple shutoff valves to precision control valves. In their unpowered state, hydraulic valves can be normally open (open...
