New Zealand designed and manufactured, moulded from a glass-reinforced nylon composite ball valve. The ball and sealing rings use a PTFE polymer to ensure a smooth action and continuous ease of operation over many years, no more hitting the handle with a hammer. High strength, high-modulus glass fibres give very high strength, rigidity, toughness and consistent sizing. The use of a composite such as this gives a huge reduction in weight over bronze, DZR and stainless fittings without sacrificing performance.

WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE CONNECTING HOSETAILS ARE THE SAME SUPPLIER.

The long standing problem of dezincification of hull fittings is a thing of the past. No more much feared pink disintegration of your valves and hosetails. TruDesign Skin Fittings completely remove the corrosion and electrical bonding problems associated with metallic fittings.

When used in below the waterline the Ball Valve should be connected directly to the skin fitting to meet safety requirements and meet marine standard compliance.
