Overview
The Sharpe 3/8″ 2000 WOG TS ball valve is a professional-grade manual shut-off valve constructed from 316 stainless steel, designed for demanding applications in hydraulics, pneumatics, pumps, and corrosive-environment plumbing. The “TS” designation indicates threaded stainless construction with NPT (National Pipe Thread) female connections. Rated at 2000 WOG (Water, Oil, Gas), this full-port ball valve provides minimal flow restriction and reliable on-off control in industrial and utility settings.
Key Features
- Full Port Design — Maximum flow with minimal pressure drop for efficient operation
- Blowout-Proof Stem — Enhanced safety feature prevents stem ejection under pressure
- RTFE Seals — Reliable seat material rated for water, oil, gas, and moderate steam service
- Locking Lever Handle — Manual operation with secure open/closed position indication
- 316 Stainless Steel Body — Superior corrosion resistance for harsh and marine environments
- NPT Threaded Connections — Standard female connections for direct integration into piping systems
