Description
Midland Nickel-Plated Full Port Ball Valve w/Stainless Steel Trim & Locking Handle
Midland Nickel-Plated Full Port Ball Valves with Stainless Steel Trim and Locking Handles are designed for dependable quarter-turn shutoff in commercial, industrial, HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, compressed air, water, and general fluid handling systems.
These valves combine a nickel-plated forged brass body with stainless steel trim for enhanced corrosion resistance and durability. The full-port internal flow path helps minimize pressure loss, while the locking steel lever handle provides added control by allowing the valve position to be secured when required.

Valve Configuration
Full-Port Flow Path
The internal passage is designed to maintain high flow capacity while helping minimize unnecessary restriction and pressure loss when the valve is fully open.
Female NPT Connections
Female threaded connections on both ends provide straightforward installation into compatible standard NPT piping systems.
Locking Handle
The steel lever handle provides quarter-turn operation and can be secured in position where additional operational control is required.
Construction Details
The valve body is manufactured from forged brass with a nickel-plated exterior to provide dependable strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life in compatible piping systems.
Stainless steel trim adds durability and corrosion resistance to internal valve components for demanding commercial and industrial service.
The full-port design helps maximize flow while minimizing pressure loss, and the locking handle provides added protection against unintended valve operation during maintenance or controlled shutdown conditions.
