Why Choose a VerSpec Ceramic Ball Valve?

Due to the advanced properties of the technical ceramics used, VerSpec Ceramic Ball Valves offer significant advantages over standard material ball valves. VerSpec valves are manufactured using solid 99% above high-purity alumina ceramic, guaranteeing a valve that is superior in all respects, including resistance to abrasion, cavitation and corrosion.

• Corrosion.
99.5% alumina ceramic is virtually inert to almost all organic and inorganic chemicals. They do not interact with, nor contaminate the process media. They are physically and chemically stable against most acids and alkalis, and offer years of service with little or no corrosive degradation.
• Abrasion.
99.5% alumina ceramic is 43% harder than zirconia, 140% harder than porcelain, and 730% harder than stainless steel, an indication of the long- term wear-resistance properties of our valve materials.
• Cavitation.
Even severe, continuous cavitation will not degrade or damage our ceramic valve components. Therefore, the VerSpec Ceramic Ball Valve may be used in cavitating or high differential-pressure Applications with little or no harmful effects.
• Wide Selection of Trims.
Each valve size offers a variety of four to five different control and round-ported valve trims. This assures highly accurate, tailored flow control as well as minimizing seat and pipe abrasion due to oversized trims.
• 6 Months Warranty
By utilizing a ceramic material that is both corrosion and abrasion- resistant, we offer an extra level of security to our customers by offering up to 6 months warranty against corrosion, abrasion.

1-Alumina (Al2O3) is one of the most economic ceramic materials, it has great corrosion and abrasion resistance properties.
2-Zirconium (ZrO2) is the highest strength and toughness at room temperature of all engineered ceramics. But this ZrO2 has operating temperature limitation, the Max temperature is 320 degC.
3-Silicon Nitride is one of great ceramic material especially used for high temperature application, special housing and ceramic parts permit solution temperature up to 950 degC.
4-Silicon Carbide is the most hardness material of all engineered ceramics, in the other word SiC hardness next to Diamond. But very low fracture toughness of SiC is a big weakness for ceramic parts, it’s easy be broken.
