Overview
The Sharpe WCB201 is a manual, two-piece threaded ball valve designed for industrial piping systems handling water, oil, and gas. Rated for 2000 WOG (Working Pressure for Oil and Gas), this valve delivers reliable service in demanding applications. The WCB designation indicates a cast carbon steel body paired with 316 stainless steel internals for corrosion resistance and durability.
