Wolseley Industrial Group, a division of Ferguson Enterprises, LLC, and Union Tech, has signed an agreement for the exclusive distribution of Union Tech’s severe-service metal-seated ball valves (MSBV) and rising-stem ball valves (RSBV) throughout the Western US.
The MSBV products include: Z1 Unibody Power Valve – One-piece metal-seated ball valve engineered for clean steam severe-service (high-pressure, high-temperature) environments, including power generation and critical on/off applications; Z2 Two-Piece Isolation Valve – Two-piece metal-seated ball valve engineered for severe-service environments for use in customized and critical applications, including chemical/petrochemical, refining, power, and mining processes; Z3 Power Valve System – Consists of a modified Z1 valve and a pair of end connections and enables inline replaceability, which eliminates the need to cut-out existing and weld-in replacement valves while retaining all features of the Z1 Unibody Power Valve.
The RSBV products include: Z4 Rising Stem Ball Valve – Employs a “tilt-and-turn” design enabling frequent cycling, zero leakage, and low torque operation. The valve is engineered for high-performance applications requiring frequent cycling with positive shutoff, such as molecular sieve systems for switching service, and gas transmission.
