Floating vs Trunnion Mounted Marine Ball Valve: Which Is Better
Floating and trunnion mounted marine ball valves are two mainstream designs for marine engineering. Floating type is simple in structure and cost-effective for medium and low pressure pipelines. Trunnion mounted type bears higher pressure, suitable for large-diameter and deep-sea ship systems. This article compares their structure, performance, installation and application scenarios to help ship owners and engineers select the right marine ball valve quickly.
