Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made of iron rather than steel
Iron hand-operated valves fall under the iron subcategory within the same hand-operated group.
If not hand-operated, e.g., solenoid or pneumatic actuated
Non-hand-operated valves are classified separately regardless of ball type mechanism.
If imported as a replacement part without housing
Loose ball valve components like seats or stems are parts, not complete appliances.
