The Type 375 Valve offers a number of design, safety and performance features

The Type 375 Valve offers a number of design, safety and performance features that make it an extremely attractive choice from both a cost and user perspective. Ergonomically designed, the grooved handle and notched union nut make for easy gripping during installation and everyday use. Its floating ball design provides leak-proof closure and the full cross section means minimal pressure loss. Exhibiting excellent chemical and corrosion resistant capabilities, the new valve is pressure rated up to 225 psi at 68°F, and has a 10,000 cycle life.

Other outstanding features include a safeblock ball seat and blow-out proof stem with double stem seals that provide complete operator protection and maintenance-free operation. The valve handle doubles as a spanner wrench to adjust or remove the adjustable seat carrier, providing easy disassembly. Its high impact vinyl handle construction provides durable, reliable service under rugged conditions. Stem "flat" indicators allow the operator to determine valve position with just a glance.

The Type 375 Valve in PVC and CPVC material is available in sizes 3/8" – 6" and comes equipped with threaded and socket end connectors (½" – 2"). In PP-n, the valve is available from 20mm to 90 mm (metric socket) and ½ to 2" (NPT). EPDM and FPM seal kits are now also available for all sizes and replacement socket and threaded end connectors are available for PVC and CPVC.
