FCT High Temperature Metal Seated Ball Valve

FCT High Temperature Metal Seated Ball Valve – Precision Shut-Off in Harsh Heat Conditions

FCT high temperature metal seated ball valves are designed for severe thermal service, where temperatures exceed the limits of traditional soft-seated valves. These valves feature hard metal seats made from materials like Stellite®, Tungsten Carbide, or Chromed Alloys, offering excellent wear resistance and sealing capability under high-pressure, high-temperature, or abrasive flow.

The metal-to-metal sealing ensures long service life, even with frequent thermal cycling, making these valves essential in refineries, power plants, and high-temperature process loops.
