What is a Crane globe valve?

A globe valve controls flow with a disc that moves down onto a seat inside a rounded body. Flow changes direction through the body, which allows fine regulation.

Stop valves are small screw-down globe valves for plumbing. Piston valves use a piston and sealing rings instead of a disc. Because they throttle well, these valves suit steam, feed water and regulating duties.

Key terms explained

Disc and seat: The moving disc presses on the seat to shut off or throttle flow.
Piston valve: A valve that seals with a piston sliding in sealing rings.
Screw-down: Closing by turning a handwheel that drives the disc down.
PN rating: Pressure Nominal: the pressure class in bar at reference temperature, such as PN16.
Class 150 and 800: American pressure classes. Class 800 is common for small forged steel valves.
End connection: How the valve joins the pipe: threaded, flanged, wafer, socket weld or clamp.
