Hayward TB1075ST Series TB True Union Ball Valve, Socket/Threaded End, PVC with FPM Seals, 3/4" Size

This Hayward PVC ball valve is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for less weight than metals and has a lever handle for manual on/off control and full port flow for higher operating efficiency than standard port. This two-piece valve has true union construction for in-place valve replacement, and fluoroelastomer (FPM) O-rings for use with a variety of chemicals and fuels. This inline valve has a 3/4" socket weld connection option to allow a smooth bore and better fluid flow, and a female threaded option for connecting to male threaded pipe fittings. It is pressure rated to 235 pounds per inch (psi) at an operating temperature range of 32 to 190 degrees F, and meets NSF International/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) 61 standards for potable water use. This full port ball valve is suitable for use in water and wastewater treatments, chemical processing, agriculture, and food and beverage industries. Ball valves use a spherical disc to control the flow between pipes, tubes, or hoses. Flow is allowed when the hole that pierces the ball-shaped disc is in line with the inlet and outlet of the valve and is blocked when the ball is horizontally swiveled 90 degrees, so that the hole of the ball is perpendicular to the opening of the valve. Ball valves can be referred to as full port or reduced port (also known as regular or standard port) depending on the inner diameter or the valve. A ball valve is full port if the hole of the ball is the same size as the inner diameter of the connecting pipeline (resulting in lower friction) and termed reduced port if the hole of the valve is one pipe size smaller than the pipe, resulting in less flow through the valve than through the shaft of the pipe. Ball valves may have a handle or lever that aligns with the ball’s position (open or closed) for manual operation. They are primarily used in air, gas, liquid, and steam applications.Hayward manufactures thermoplastic valves and process control products for industrial applications. The company, founded in 1923 and headquartered in Elizabeth, NJ, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001:2008.
