    Hex Valve Introduces Hex Block Valves


    Hex block valves are used on upstream offshore/onshore gas and oil production and initial processing installations. Typically used on liquid hydrocarbon applications to minimize the size and weight of the pipe-valve assemblies used for primary and/or secondary isolation, vent and calibration or primary isolation of analyzer takeoffs.

    Also used in downstream oil refining and petrochemical production on flanged processes for primary isolation of primary takeoffs.

  • One piece rugged construction means less probability of corrosion and longer life.
  • Large variety of standard and optional materials and outlet options, mean you can select the style you need right from the catalog
  • Hex was the first in the industry to utilize Non-Rotating Stem Tip (NRT) technology. When the stem tip contacts the seat, it stops rotating, preventing the cross scoring and eventual leaks that can occur with ball type stems.
  • Standard materials: A479 Type 316 and NACE, A105 Carbon Steel and NACE, Low Temperature Carbon STeel A350 LF2, Hastelloy C276, Monel, Incoloy 800, Inconel 600, Inconel 625, Duplex A182, F51
  • Optional Materials include Super Duplex, Alloy 20, Titanium (Gr 2), Zirconium
  • Robust bonnet and stem design means higher probability of longer life, and less break risk than competitors
  • Special built-to-order design inquires welcome.
