What Is a Sanitary Ball Valve for Food Use?

A Sanitary Ball Valve is a quarter-turn valve made from SS 316L stainless steel with tri-clamp or weld ends, designed specifically for food-grade, non-toxic, sterile applications. These valves offer:

  • Easy-to-clean surfaces (electropolished, mirror finish)
  • Full bore design with no product buildup
  • Compatibility with Clean-In-Place (CIP) and Steam-In-Place (SIP) systems

Key Features of Our Food-Grade Ball Valves

  1. Made from SS 316L / CF3M with <0.03% carbon
  2. Internal finish: mirror-polished to 0.4 µm Ra or better
  3. End connections: Tri-Clamp, Butt Weld, SMS, DIN, RJT
  4. Full bore for unrestricted flow
  5. Leak-free sealing with FDA-compliant PTFE, TFM, or EPDM seats
  6. Blowout-proof stem, anti-static, crevice-free design
  7. Certified per FDA, 3-A, ISO, CE, ATEX (on request)
