Description
Our nickel plated brass butterfly valve is a type of valve that uses a rotating disk or vane to control the flow of fluid through a pipe.
It is typically used to regulate, start, or stop the flow in various systems.
These butterfly valves are equiped with female x female thread.
In a nickel plated brass butterfly valve, the disk is mounted on a shaft, and the valve operates by rotating the disk 90 degrees to either open or close the valve.
The valve body is made of brass, which gives it good corrosion resistance and durability, especially in non-corrosive or mildly corrosive environments.
Butterfly valves offer better control for modulating flow (adjusting the flow rate) as they can be partially opened to adjust the flow.
The flow characteristics of butterfly valves are often more linear than those of ball valves, making them suitable for applications requiring more gradual flow regulation.
Ball valves generally provide an on/off control with less precision for modulating flow.
They are typically either fully open or fully closed, making them less suited for precise flow regulation compared to butterfly valves.
Our nickel plated ball valves are ideal for larger pipes and systems where flow control and throttling are needed.
Common in HVAC, water treatment plants, chemical processing, and large-scale industrial systems.
Can be used for both high and low-pressure systems, although not as suitable for high-pressure applications as ball valves.
Butterfly valves are generally more compact and lighter than ball valves of the same size, making them ideal for large installations or where space is limited.
