Ball Valve Seat Materials
25% Reinforced PTFE
NIBCO uses short strand fiberglass as a reinforcement for our higher pressure carbon steel and alloy ball valve products.
Adding reinforcement increases the pressure containing capabilities of PTFE by reducing its tendency to cold-flow.
Color Code
25% reinforced PTFE resin has a color code of RED. This
pigment is permanently molded into the PTFE resin matrix.
Temperature Range
-20° to +400° F temperature range in ball valve applications.
Pressure Range
27" vacuum to 2,000 PSI non-shock water, oil or gas.
Unique Features
Improved dimensional stability. Good wear properties.
Typical Applications
Steam service, natural and bottled gas distribution.
NIBCO Figure Number Designation “R”
Product Availability
T-560-CS-R/S6-R
Carbon-Filled PTFE
Carbon-filled PTFE is an excellent seat material for steam applications as well as high efficiency oil-based thermal fluids. Other
fillers, including graphite, enable this seat material to have better cycle life than other filled or reinforced PTFE seats. Chemical
resistance equal to other PTFE and filled PTFE products.
Color Code
Carbon filled PTFE has a natural pigment of BLACK.
Temperature Range
-20° to +500° F temperature range in ball valve applications.
Pressure Range
27" vacuum to 2,000 PSI non-shock water, oil or gas.
Unique Features
Higher cycle life than other PTFE resins.
Typical Applications
High pressure steam and thermal fluids.
NIBCO Figure Number Designation
“F” (in flanged) and “C” (in threaded).
