Stainless Steel Ball Valve with Thread Connection – Industrial Quality at a Budget Price
The KH109 stainless steel ball valve is a 2-piece full-port threaded ball valve designed for industrial shut-off and flow-control applications. The body, ball and stem are manufactured from stainless steel 1.4408 (CF8M), while the ball seat is made of PTFE with 15% glass fibre reinforcement for improved mechanical strength and dimensional stability. With a maximum operating pressure of 63 bar and a temperature range from −25 °C to +180 °C, the KH109 is suitable for demanding industrial applications.
The threaded stainless steel ball valve is available in different connection configurations:
- KH109-SSTHI: female/female thread (F-F) according to ISO 7-1 (EN 10226-1)
- KH109-SSTHZ: male/female thread (M-F) according to ISO 7-1
- KH109-SSTHI (NPT): female thread according to ASME B1.20.1 NPT for the North American market and international projects
All versions are available in sizes from 1/4″ to 3″ and are supplied with a hand lever.
Materials and applications
Stainless steel 1.4408 (CF8M) offers high corrosion resistance in many applications involving water-based media, diluted acids and chloride-containing fluids. The PTFE seat reinforced with 15% glass fibre provides greater dimensional stability and mechanical resistance than standard unreinforced PTFE, making it suitable for frequent switching operations and increased mechanical loads.
Further technical information about stainless steel ball valves, materials, sealing systems, connection types, face-to-face dimensions and certifications can be found in the technical compendium for stainless steel ball valves .
Typical applications of the KH109 stainless steel threaded ball valve include:
- Chemical and process industries
- Water and wastewater treatment
- Food and pharmaceutical industries
- Steam and hot-water systems
- Plant engineering and general industrial installations
