Val-Matic QuadroSphere - Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves

The QuadroSphere® Ball is not a typical ball design. Surfaces of the ball that are non-essential to sealing have been recessed creating additional flow paths. The recessed surfaces provide lipped edges that wipe the seat surfaces clean during opening and closing to avoid particulate build-up. The ball has two sets of seating surfaces to provide shut off in the fully closed position and protect the seats in the fully open position.  

Features & Benefits

  • QuadroSphere® Ball – unique contoured ball adds 4 additional flow paths
  • Wear Resistance – reduced ball to seat contact creating up to 70% less wear
  • Low Running Torque – Reduced engagement and friction
  • Self-Cleaning Seats – Four recessed surfaces on the ball provide lipped edges for scraping the seats clean
  • Multiple Flow Paths
  • Protected Seating – seat surfaces are out of the flow path
  • Hardened Ball – ground and polished hard chrome plated stainless steel ball
  • Stem Seals – Double O-ring and Flexible Graphite Packing
  • Injection Fittings – In the event of damage to the seat insert or stem seals, the sealant can be injected to temporarily seal the valve until repairs can be made
