Floating Or Trunnion Forged Ball Valve Application: Industrial

A floating or trunnion-mounted forged ball valve is a type of ball valve that is used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. The term "floating" refers to the way the ball inside the valve is suspended and moves with respect to the valve body. In a floating ball valve, the ball is free to move slightly within the valve, which allows for the valve to compensate for thermal expansion and pressure changes in the pipeline.
Forged ball valves are made from high-quality forged materials, such as carbon steel or stainless steel, and are designed for high-pressure applications. They are often used in oil and gas pipelines, chemical processing plants, and other industrial settings where reliability and durability are essential. Trunnion-mounted and floating ball valves are both designed for ease of maintenance, making them a popular choice for use in critical applications where downtime is not an option.
