FlowBiz Exports brand Plug Valve

FlowBiz Exports brand Plug valves are quarter-turn manual motion valves that stop or start fluid flow. They offer on-off, diverting, and basic moderate throttling services.

A plug valve is based on a plug with a hollow passage in the valve body. The quarter-turn motion aligns the pipe and the hole, leading to an open state. When turned to a 90-degree angle from the open position, the valve sits across the pipe, leading to a closed state.

Plug valves are available in various types, and port openings are via the plug.

Two-Way Plug Valves: The design allows for a closure element in the middle (a plug and a sleeve) and a straight-through, two-way service for the open and close functions.

Three-Way Plug Valves: These valves include a 3rd port, generally at a right angle from the inlet. These plug valves can help divert flow (entry from an inlet directed between one or both outlets) or combine flow (entry from the two inlets channeled into a single outlet).
