PE & PP Compression Fittings-Ball Balve

Key Features:
PE (Polyethylene): A durable, flexible thermoplastic material widely used for piping systems due to its resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and environmental stress. PE is commonly used in water and gas distribution systems.

PP (Polypropylene): Another strong thermoplastic material, known for its higher temperature resistance and excellent chemical resistance. PP is often used in systems where chemical exposure or high temperatures are common, making it ideal for industrial applications.

Compression Fittings: These fittings are used to join pipes together without the need for welding or heat fusion. Compression fittings include a fitting body, nut, and an O-ring or sealing element. When the nut is tightened, it compresses the O-ring or seal to create a tight, leak-proof connection. Compression fittings are easy to install, reliable, and often used in water, gas, and irrigation systems.

Ball Valve: The ball valve is a type of valve that uses a spherical ball with a hole through it to control the flow of a medium (liquid or gas). The ball is rotated inside the valve body to either allow or block the flow:

Open Position: The hole in the ball aligns with the pipe, allowing fluid or gas to pass through.
Closed Position: The ball is rotated 90 degrees so that the hole is perpendicular to the pipe, blocking the flow entirely.
Ball valves are typically used in applications where quick and reliable shutoff is required. The 90-degree rotation makes them fast to operate.

Applications:
Water and Gas Systems: Ball valves are commonly used in residential, commercial, and industrial water supply and gas distribution systems to isolate sections of the pipeline for maintenance or repair.
Irrigation Systems: They are also used in irrigation to control the flow of water, making them essential for on-demand regulation of water distribution.
Chemical Handling: In industries dealing with chemicals, PP ball valves are used for their superior chemical resistance.

Advantages:
Simple Operation: Ball valves provide a very simple mechanism for controlling flow—just a quarter turn of the valve handle to open or close the system.
Leak-Proof: When properly installed, ball valves provide a leak-proof seal due to their tight ball-to-seal contact.
Durability: Both PE and PP ball valves are highly resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and UV damage, making them ideal for outdoor, underground, or harsh environment applications.
Versatile: These valves can be used in a variety of applications such as water, gas, chemicals, or other fluid handling systems.
Low Maintenance: Ball valves are durable and have minimal maintenance requirements due to their simple construction and reliable operation.
