AAP UPVC Double Union Ball Valve, 1"

This AAP UPVC double union ball valve has a UPVC body and ball, an ABS handle and screwed (BSP) ends. It is supplied in 5 sizes from 3/4" (20mm) to 2" (50mm). A ball valve turns a ball with a hole through it between sealing seats. When the lever or handle is in line with the pipe the hole lines up with the flow and the valve is open, and a quarter turn closes it. The handle sits in line with the port, so it shows the valve position.

A double union valve has a union nut at each end, so the body can be taken out of the pipeline for servicing or replacement without cutting the pipe. It is suited to water, weak acids and alkaline solutions and some corrosive liquids, and asks that the chemical chart is consulted for suitability. Plastic valves lose pressure rating as temperature rises.
