Middleeast Valve is famous for Plug valve supplier in Dubai. We supply to cities like Tabriz, Basrah, Shiraz,and Salalah. A plug valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that is commonly used to control the flow of fluids in pipelines. The valve consists of a cylindrical or conical plug with a through hole, which is perpendicular to the axis of the valve body. The plug is typically connected to an operating mechanism, which can be manual, electric, or pneumatic, and is used to rotate the plug 90 degrees to open or close the valve.
Difference between Plug valve vs Ball valve:
1) Plug valve: have a cylindrical or tapered plug with a hole or port that can be rotated within the valve body to control the flow of fluid. The plug is typically connected to the valve stem, and when the plug is rotated, it can block or allow the flow through the valve. The plug can be fully inserted into the valve body to completely block the flow or withdrawn to allow full flow through the valve. The plug can also be positioned at various angles to partially control the flow.
2)Ball valve: have a spherical or ball-shaped plug with a hole or bore that can be rotated within the valve body. The ball is typically connected to the valve stem, and when the ball is rotated, it can block or allow the flow through the valve. The ball can be rotated to a 90-degree angle to fully open or fully close the valve, allowing for quick and easy operation. Ball valves typically have a straight-through flow path when fully open, which can result in minimal pressure drop across the valve.
