PFA coated plug in a machined body bore to provide
exemplary sealing capabilities in non abrasive services.
Designed for full rated class 600 service conditions with
buttweld ends, the Plugseal valve is designed to ASME
B16.34 and pressures up to 1440 psi. Based on
simplicity, the design allows easy plug removal and
replacement, minimizing the number of spare parts and
inventory required.
