Tank Bottom Steam Valves, FC Series 8 & 9, 1/2”- 6”
IMI PBM’s 2-Way Ball Valves are suited for pure process and clean steam applications. Forged and cast valves are low-controlled ferrite. Our unique Adjust-O-Seal® feature allows in-line valve adjustment to compensate for normal wear on valve seats.
