<strong>Ball</strong> Valve Seat Materials<br />

Virgin PTFE<br />

Virgin PTFE is a good all-around, general purpose seating material. PTFE has outstanding resistance to chemical attack by a<br />

broad spectrum of organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals and solvents and is generally considered chemically inert. PTFE is<br />

a self-lubricating polymer with a very low coefficient of friction, which makes an excellent seating material for quarter-turn ball<br />

valves.<br />

Color Code<br />

Virgin PTFE resin has a natural pigment of WHITE.<br />

Temperature Range<br />

-20° to +400° F temperature range in ball valve applications.<br />

Typical Applications<br />

Cold and hot potable water, HVAC chilled and hot water.<br />

Evaporative cooling systems. Medical gas valves.<br />

NIBCO Figure Number Designation “Y”<br />

Pressure Range<br />

27" vacuum to 600 PSI non-shock water, oil or gas.<br />

Unique Features<br />

Best choice for low pressure sealing, lowest torque of all<br />

PTFE polymers.<br />

15% Reinforced PTFE<br />

NIBCO uses short strand fiberglass as a reinforcement for our mid-range ball valve products. Adding reinforcement increases<br />

the pressure containing capabilities of PTFE by reducing its tendency to cold-flow.<br />

Color Code<br />

15% reinforced PTFE is color coded BLUE. This pigment is<br />

permanently molded into the PTFE polymer matrix.<br />

Temperature Range<br />

-20° to +400° F temperature range in ball valve applications.<br />

Pressure Range<br />

27" vacuum to 1,000 PSI non-shock water, oil or gas.<br />

Unique Features<br />

Greater resistance to cold-flow than virgin PTFE.<br />

Typical Applications<br />

Mid-range steam applications. Throttling and balancing of<br />

hydronic heating and cooling systems.<br />
