Description

The TRUDESIGN ball valve, made from glass-fibre-reinforced nylon composite, is a tried-and-tested product worldwide. This version features a T-handle, designed for installation scenarios where a large handle would be impractical or obstructive due to space constraints. The valve is corrosion- and electrolysis-resistant, electrically non-conductive and suitable for hulls made of aluminium, steel, wood or GRP. Ball and sealing rings made of PTFE. Parallel or cylindrical BSP internal threads.
