The stainless steel 2 piece ball valve has one body joint which means the body is composed of 2 pieces, hence the name “two piece”. This 2 piece body allows a larger ball to be installed at the time of manufacture, which makes this a full bore or full port ball valve.Full bore means that the bore hole in the ball has the same inside diameter as that of the piping it is connected to. The advantage is that there is no pressure drop and flow rate is unaffected.They provide a simple on/off flow, as well as the ability to control flow rate by opening and closing to different degrees, this process is called throttling. Quick and easy to install, threaded valves are easy to use and require no tools for installation. 

The two piece stainless steel ball valve is probably the most widely used ball valve. The two piece ball valve will open or shut off flow on most liquids and gases quickly and easily and is suitable for just about any application where a simple on/off action is needed. Flow rate can also be controlled by partially opening or closing the valve to various degrees. Also referred to as a two-way ball valve, since it allows flow in any direction straight through from inlet to outlet. This means that the 2 piece SS ball valve has no pressure drop and keeps the flow rate high.
