Applications

Pinch valves are commonly used in industrial applications where precise flow control is not required, and the fluid being handled is abrasive or corrosive. They can be used in chemical processing to control the flow of chemicals through pipelines and tanks, and in mining and minerals processing to control the flow of slurries, tailings, and other abrasive fluids. 

Tips: Pinch Valve vs. Ball Valve

Pinch valves and ball valves are two types of valves used for controlling the flow of fluids or gases. Pinch valves use a flexible sleeve to pinch off the flow of fluid while ball valves use a rotating ball-shaped disc to open or close the flow. Pinch valves offer better flow control for viscous or abrasive fluids, require less maintenance, and are generally less expensive than ball valves. However, ball valves are better suited for high-pressure applications, are rated for higher temperatures, and are better suited for simple on/off applications. The choice between the two will depend on the specific requirements of the application.
