Why SS 316 Material?

Stainless Steel 316 is an austenitic stainless steel containing molybdenum, which significantly improves corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides, acids, and chemical solvents. This makes SS 316 Flush Bottom Ball Valves highly suitable for:

• Chemical processing plants
• Pharmaceutical industries
• Food and beverage processing
• Petrochemical industries
• Dye and pigment industries
• Agrochemical manufacturing

The molybdenum content enhances resistance to pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion, ensuring longer service life even in aggressive environments.

Working Principle of Flush Bottom Ball Valve

A Flush Bottom Ball Valve is mounted at the bottom of a tank or reactor. The internal ball rotates 90 degrees to allow or block flow. The flush design ensures:

• No cavity formation
• Minimal product hold-up
• Complete tank drainage
• Reduced contamination risk

This design is particularly useful in batch processing industries where cleaning between batches is critical.
