Frequently Asked Questions

Sapag Ball Valves are used for flow control in industrial applications, including oil & gas, chemical processing, water treatment, steam systems, and general fluid handling. They provide tight shut-off, minimal pressure drop, and long-lasting reliability.

Sapag offers a range of ball valves, including:

  • 1-Piece Ball Valves – Compact and durable for simple flow control.
  • 2-Piece Ball Valves – Easy to maintain with a split-body design.
  • 3-Piece Ball Valves – Modular construction for quick servicing.
  • GACHOT® and RTS Series – High-performance industrial ball valves.

Sapag Ball Valves are manufactured from stainless steel, carbon steel, and special alloys, ensuring resistance to corrosion, extreme temperatures, and high-pressure conditions.

  • Full Bore (Full Port) – Allows maximum flow with minimal restriction, ideal for applications where high flow rates are required.
  • Reduced Bore (Reduced Port) – Has a smaller internal diameter, reducing flow capacity but providing cost savings and compact sizing.

Yes, Sapag Ball Valves are designed to handle high-pressure environments, with some models rated for extreme industrial conditions. The choice of material and sealing technology ensures safe and efficient operation under high pressure.

Sapag 3-Piece Ball Valves allow for quick disassembly of the center section, making them ideal for applications requiring frequent maintenance or cleaning without removing the entire valve from the pipeline.

Yes, many Sapag Ball Valves, especially those made from stainless steel with high-temperature seals, are suitable for steam systems and other high-temperature applications.

Sapag Ball Valves are widely used in:

  • Oil & Gas
  • Chemical & Petrochemical
  • Water Treatment
  • Food & Beverage
  • Power Generation
  • Steam & High-Temperature Systems
  • 1-Piece: Best for cost-effective, low-maintenance applications where disassembly is not needed.
  • 2-Piece: Offers a balance of durability and easy servicing.
  • 3-Piece: Ideal for frequent maintenance and cleaning without pipeline removal.

Sapag Ball Valves are available in both manual (lever-operated) and automated (pneumatic or electric actuated) versions, providing flexibility based on operational needs.

Regular inspection, cleaning, and lubrication of moving parts help extend the valve's lifespan. For 3-piece designs, maintenance is easier since the valve body can be removed without disturbing pipeline connections.
