Short Description
A globe valve is a type of valve used to regulate, start, or stop the flow of fluid in a pipeline.
It has a spherical body (globe-shaped) with an internal baffle that forces fluid to change direction, providing good throttling capability. The flow is controlled by a movable plug or disc that presses onto the valve seat, making globe valves ideal for applications requiring frequent operation and precise flow control.
