The AKH3 has many features that make it one of the best lined ball valves in the world, cavity filled seats ensure minimum product hold up. Anti-blow out stem prevents stem blow out even if the top works are removed. Stainless steel fasteners ensure long term protection from external corrosion. The floating ball offers low turning torques and low pressure positive sealing. The seats, ball, stem and stem packing all easily replaceable on site allowing easy maintenance and overhaul.
