Selection of reliable brass ball valves

 Ball valves, representing a popular category of fittings, are widely used in various areas of the economy Various types of materials are used for their production: steel, stainless steel, cast iron, bronze, brass Brass products are the most popular due to their low price, long service life, and easy maintenance

Ball valves made of bronze and brass have the following characteristics:

• they are used in pipeline systems at a temperature of +1200C1500C and a pressure of 1.6 MPa;
• as a working medium, it is possible to use cold and hot water, steam and other non-aggressive media;
• the rod and ball are made of brass;
• tightness according to the requirements of GOST 9544-93

 A brass ball valve with a coupling connection is the best choice for domestic use These products are safe for water supply

The brass ball valve is equipped with a Teflon seal The nut adjusts the seal ring If there is a small leak, it is enough to tighten the nut to eliminate it The crane has a working life of 20 thousand opening and closing cycles

 Differences between a high-quality crane and a fake one

 Quite often there are fakes of brass taps made of less expensive materials They have low quality indicators and do not provide normal operation

When buying a crane, you should pay attention to the following features::

• to establish which material is used for housing it is necessary to choose the brass and not zinc alloy with aluminium The difference is its weight-brass is much heavier;
• for the manufacture of most items, leaded brass LS59-2 (GOST 15527) is used);
• when comparing two cranes from different manufacturers, but with equal indicators, preference should be given to the crane that is heavier in weight;
• the most reliable node is considered to have a Teflon ring and a rod from the inside;
• the best is the design of the valve gate in the form of a ball without ducts, used in order to reduce material consumption;
• to reduce the effect of abrasive particles, chrome electroplating is performed;
• a self-locking nut with a polyethylene ring is the best way to secure the handle, preventing the nut from being unscrewed The most unreliable attachment is a screw that quickly fails;
• products from Italy or Spain are considered the best in the segment of brass ball valves Non-original products may contain modified brands of manufacturers and countries with the addition or removal of letters;
• the most significant disadvantage of brass is the probability of discoloration Now manufacturers use brass with stable qualities

 Brass valves have the advantage:

• long-term use;
• high degree of tightness;
• elimination of minor leaks by pressing the nut;
• low maintenance costs;
• by installation in different positions;
• to increase the anti-corrosion resistance, parts are sprayed with brass

 Manufactured in compliance with design and technological standards, the brass ball valve is a reliable shut-off element for water supply system equipment
