The AKH2A Full-Port Lined Ball Valve offers the same benefits as the AKH2 but is designed with ASME dimensional standards. Available in sizes from 1 inch (25 mm) to 6 inches (150 mm), this valve is known for its bubble-tight shutoff, low maintenance, no-leak stem seals, and safety assurance provided by a blowout-proof stem assembly. Flowserve Atomac valves are recognized worldwide for their corrosion-resistant fluoropolymer lining, making them the valve of choice for performance, safety, and reliability.
