" – 2" (15 – 50mm)
Series B6010, B6011 and B6013 2-Piece, Standard Port,
Bronze Ball Valves feature a blowout proof pressure retaining
stem. The B6010, B6011, B6013’s standard port orifice
ensures minimal pressure drop, while Durafill
® and Uniseal ®
seats and chrome plated brass ball provide lasting service for a
wide range of liquids and gases.

SS – Stainless steel ball and stem
VT – Virgin PTFE seat material
Pressure – Temperature
Temperature Range: 0°F – 225°F (-18°C – 107°C)
Maximum Working Pressure: 600psi (41 bar) WOG non-shock
for threaded end and 400psi (28 bar) WOG non-shock for sol-
der end @ 100°F (38°C). Not rated for steam service due to
union end gasket.
*This valve is designed to be soft soldered into lines without
disassembly, using a low temperature solder 420°F (215°C).
Other solders such as 95/5 tin antimony 460°F (238°C) can be
used. However, extreme caution must be used to prevent seat
damage. Higher temperature solders will damage the seat
material. ANSI B.15.18 states that the maximum operating
pressure of 50-50 solder connections is 200 psi (14 bar) at
100°F (38°C) and decreases with higher temperature.
Apply heat with the flame directed AWAY from the center of the
valve body. Excessive heat can harm the seats. After soldering,
the packing nut may have to be tightened.
