Ball Valve Soft Seat Description:
Applicable Products: Trunnion mounted ball valves, floating ball valves
Ball Valve Seat Materials: PTFE, RPTFE, PEEK, CT200, PCTFE, PI
Size Range: Ball valves from 1/4" to 53"
Continuous Operating Temperature Range: -196℃ ~ 400℃
Pressure Range: 150LB-2500LB
Main Material Properties:
PTFE: Excellent chemical resistance, compatible with nearly all media. A stable thermoplastic limited to low-pressure service; low friction coefficient, modifiable by adding glass fiber, carbon fiber, graphite, metal powder and other fillers.
PEEK: Outstanding chemical resistance, ideal for high-temperature and high-pressure working conditions up to 260°C. Excellent wear resistance, a robust semi-crystalline thermoplastic with resistance to hydrolysis, steam and hot water.
PCTFE: Optimized for cryogenic service, usable down to -260°C. Suitable only for relatively low pressure; features superior thermal stability and nearly zero water absorption.
German Yellow Nylon: Suitable for high-pressure applications with a lower operating temperature range. Better dimensional stability than PTFE, low friction coefficient and lower water absorption than standard nylon.
