Stainless Steel Double Ferrule Hex Bar Stock Ball Valve
The Stainless Steel Double Ferrule Hex Bar Stock Ball Valve is an HBB Series valve designed for manual on/off isolation in instrumentation and fluid-control systems.
Its straight-pattern hex bar stock body uses double-ferrule tube connections at both ends, providing a compact solution for direct connection to fractional or metric tubing.

HBB Hex Bar Stock Design
The HBB Series uses a compact hex bar stock body for instrumentation and fluid-control systems requiring manual on/off isolation.
The straight-pattern configuration provides a direct 2-way flow path, while the manually operated handle provides quarter-turn opening and closing of the valve.
Double-Ferrule Tube Connections
This configuration is available with double-ferrule tube connections at both ends for fractional tubing from 1/4 in. to 1 in. and metric tubing from 6 mm to 25 mm.
Available orifice sizes and flow coefficients vary with the selected tube size. The required tube outside diameter and operating conditions should therefore be specified when selecting the valve.
Pressure and Temperature
Maximum working pressure is up to 3000 psig (207 bar), with a working temperature range from -65°F to 300°F (-54°C to 148°C).
Applicable working pressure depends on the selected tube size, tubing specification, operating temperature, and service conditions. Final valve selection should be based on the actual system requirements.
Typical Applications
HBB ball valves are suitable for manual on/off isolation in instrumentation and fluid-control systems, including process instrumentation, test systems, sampling systems, and equipment fluid lines.
Application suitability should be confirmed according to operating pressure, temperature, process fluid, tube size, tubing specification, and material compatibility.
Selecting the Right Configuration
When specifying a double-ferrule HBB ball valve, provide the required tube outside diameter together with operating pressure, temperature, process fluid, tubing material, and quantity.
For applications requiring a different connection type, provide the system interface requirements so the appropriate HBB configuration can be confirmed.
