Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve -> Metal Seated Ball Valve Metal-seated ball valves are introduced when the temperature and pressure rating of fluids override the limit of traditional PTFE-seated ball valves. Metal-seated ball valves combine the advantage of both gate valves and PTFE-seated ball valves, and are recommanded in some extreme conditions.
