Stainless Steel CNG Ball Valve – 3/8" Tube OD | 6000 PSI | PCTFE Seats (SBT3-S-6-CNG)
The SBT3-S-6-CNG is a compact 3/8" tube OD ball valve designed for compressed natural gas (CNG) and high-pressure gas systems requiring precise shutoff and flow control. Engineered from 316 stainless steel and brass, it combines corrosion resistance with mechanical strength for long-term reliability in Clean-in-Place (CIP) instrumentation and sanitary gas panels.
This valve features PCTFE (Polychlorotrifluoroethylene) seats, a Buna O-ring, and PEEK trunnion bearings to ensure smooth operation, extended cycle life, and excellent chemical resistance. Its blowout-resistant stem and flow direction handle with a mechanical stop support safe operation in tight, high-pressure environments.
Rated to 6000 PSIG and tested for leak-tight performance, the SBT3-S-6-CNG is ideal for panel-mounted or integrated system use. Whether you’re managing fuel delivery, gas routing, or hygienic valve assemblies, it provides trusted performance in sanitary and industrial applications.
Key Benefits
- Control: Low Cv (0.75) for precision gas regulation in compact spaces
- Safety: Blowout-resistant stem and positive mechanical stop for secure shutoff
- Durability: PEEK trunnion bearings and PCTFE seats extend cycle life
- Compatibility: Works with 3/8" stainless tubing and two-way/three-way layouts
- Material: 316 stainless steel and brass body with chemically resistant internals
Typical Applications
- Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) skids and systems
- Clean fuel and gas delivery panels
- Sanitary instrumentation and process control setups
- Clean-in-Place (CIP) instrumentation
- Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) assemblies for gas regulation
