Ceramic Ball Valve
Ceramic lined ball valves are specially designed industrial valves that are designed to provide increased durability and performance in environments where the flowing media is abrasive, corrosive or high temperature. These valves feature a metal body lined with a high-performance ceramic, such as aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃,) or zirconium oxide (ZrO₂). This ceramic lining provides excellent protection against wear, corrosion and extreme temperatures, making it an ideal choice for industries that handle difficult fluids.
To ensure durability and long-term performance in your fluid control system, you need a valve that can handle the toughest challenges. With superior resistance to wear, corrosion and extreme temperatures, our ceramic lined ball valves are the ideal solution for industries where reliability and efficiency are paramount. Whether you are handling abrasive slurries, corrosive chemicals or high temperature processes, TOT Valve’s ceramic lined ball valves provide unmatched performance.
Don’t settle for second best, contact the Tot Valve team today and let us help you find the ideal valve solution for your industrial needs.
Be careful when choosing a new valve supplier, the disappointment of poor quality can last much longer than the joy of a low price!

Why Choose a Ceramic Lined Ball Valve?
Corrosion Resistance
Our ceramic lined ball valves feature a tough ceramic lining that provides extra protection, ensuring your valves last longer and operate more efficiently, whether you’re handling abrasive slurries, harsh chemicals or more.
Wear Resistance
If your system handles abrasive materials such as mud, sand or grit, you know how quickly conventional valves wear out. The smooth, hard ceramic surface of a ceramic lined valve effectively resists erosion, extending the life of the valve and minimizing the risk of costly maintenance and downtime.
High Temperature Performance
The ceramic material’s ability to withstand extreme temperatures makes ceramic lined ball valves ideal for high temperature environments. Whether you’re managing steam, hot liquids or gases, these valves will continue to work properly even under the most severe conditions. Their thermal stability ensures that you won’t experience premature valve failure due to high temperatures.
Cost-effective Long-term Investment
While the initial cost of a ceramic lined ball valve may be slightly higher, its long life and reduced maintenance requirements make it a cost-effective choice in the long run. Fewer changeouts and less downtime will result in significant savings in repair and labor costs, making it a smart investment for your business.

FAQ
A ceramic lined ball valve is an industrial valve with a metal body that is coated on the inside with a layer of high-performance ceramic material (like aluminum oxide or zirconium oxide). This ceramic lining provides superior abrasion, corrosion, and high-temperature resistance, making it ideal for harsh environments and fluid handling applications in industries like mining, chemical processing, power generation, and more.
Abrasion Resistance: Ceramic materials are highly resistant to erosion caused by abrasive particles, significantly extending the valve's lifespan.
Corrosion Resistance: The ceramic lining offers protection against aggressive chemicals and corrosive fluids, reducing the risk of valve failure in chemical industries.
High-Temperature Tolerance: Ceramic can withstand extreme temperatures, making ceramic lined ball valves suitable for high-heat applications.
Reduced Maintenance Costs: Due to their durability, ceramic lined ball valves require less frequent maintenance and replacements, resulting in cost savings over time.
Improved Flow Control: The smooth ceramic lining minimizes friction and wear, enhancing flow control accuracy and reducing energy loss.
Yes, ceramic lined ball valves are ideal for high-temperature environments. The ceramic materials used in the lining are highly resistant to heat, making these valves suitable for applications such as steam lines, power plants, and other industries that require handling of hot fluids or gases.
Yes, ceramic lined ball valves can be customized based on your specific application requirements. Customizations can include valve size, pressure ratings, material choices for the body and lining, and end connections such as flanged, threaded, or butt weld.
