What is Industrial Fitting
Industrial fittings are mechanical control and regulating devices that influence the flow and pressure of fluids in a process. They mainly take place in pipelines and are available in a wide variety of designs. Among others, they include: Butterfly valves, globe valves and gate valves, ball and plug valves, sight glass fittings, pressure reducers, strainers and many more.
Types of Industrial Valves
There are various types of fittings, each designed for specific applications and connection requirements. Common types include:
- Ball Valve
- Gate Valve
- Butterfly Valve
- Check Valve
- Globe Valve
- Needle Valve
- Pressure Relief Valve
- Safety Valve
These valve types are just a selection from the wide variety available in industrial applications, The choice of valve depends on the specific requirements of the system, including the type of fluid, pressure conditions, temperature range, and the desired level of control.
