Polyethylene Valves for Natural Gas. Providing valves and equipment to the world s energy markets for over 00 years.
Polyethylene Valves Made in the U.S.A. The POLYBALL valve is manufactured at our Mansura, Louisiana, facility, which is ISO 900:00 certified as a Quality Management System. Custom, dedicated tooling and equipment have been developed for every valve size to achieve and maintain quality levels during production and minimize variation in all processes. At assembly, each valve is assigned a unique serial number that provides complete traceability for critical components. The serial number allows complete traceability from the customer s installation back to the raw material. All POLYBALL valves now feature the new industry-standard tracking and traceability code per ASTM F897 that allows instant access to individual valve specifications. With decoding software, simply scan the bar code to see the production date, size, material and valve type, lot code and more. 6 7 8 9 3 4 5 MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION NO.

Pass with Flying Colors Kerotest Polyball Polyethylene Ball Valves meet the requirements of ASME B6.40: Manually Operated Thermoplastic Gas Shutoffs and Valves in Gas Distribution Systems. Independent third-party evaluation. A complete report, demonstrating compliance with ASME B6.40 is available upon request. All qualification and production tests were successfully completed. Additional tests performed by Kerotest beyond the B6.40 requirements include Burst Test, Cycle Test, Impact Test, Bend Test and Tensile Test. Linear static stress testing of Polyball delivered outstanding results when subjected to 5 psi internal pressure. All valves are in full compliance with ASME B6.40.
