Description
Ball Valves (Floating / Trunnion) – Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania
Product Description
Ball Valves control flow using a rotating ball with a central bore that aligns or blocks the pipeline. A quarter-turn operation allows fast shut-off, making these valves ideal for systems requiring frequent operation.
At Opal Industrial Solutions, we supply floating ball valves for small to medium sizes and trunnion-mounted ball valves for larger diameters and high-pressure applications. These valves serve oil and gas systems, water treatment plants, industrial process lines, and utility networks across East Africa.
