The AKH6 is primarily used as a tank drain valve, the taper bore design gives a larger inlet port to quickly empty vessels. Manufactured by Atomac who are the world’s leading manufacturer of corrosion resistant fluoropolymer lined valves. They are designed to provide bubble tight shut off, have floating balls to reduce turning torque and have proven low maintenance stem seals.

The AKH6 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.
