ADVANTAGES
In-line serviceable swing-out center section allows easy
access to internal valve components without disturbing
alignment of pipe. Functions as both valve and union.
Self adjusts with pressure and temperature fluctuations.
Blow-out proof anti-static design helps prevent accidents
and injuries.
PEEK and Nova* thrust bearings and stem seals extend
valve cycle life over conventional ball valves and are the
best choice for actuation.
Allows valve ends to be welded in line without disassembly, saving costly labor time. Also prevents seal ruptures
in high pressure or steam applications.
Ideal for actuation. Centering lip feature assures precise
alignment of bracket, stem and coupler. Actuators may
be retrofitted on existing Series 99 without disruption of
line integrity. Allows for secondary containment unit to
be added when necessary.
All Sharpe® Series 99 Valves meet OSHA standards with
locking device. Keeps valves from being opened or
closed accidentally.
Relief slots help equalize body pressure, reduce torque
an assure leak-tight sealing. Seats also provide a wiping
action that cleans ball and seats each time valve is
cycled.

Buna, Delrin, Nova*, PEEK, EPDM, Viton®, TFE, RTFE, TFM,
Grafoil, and UHMWPE.
A wide choice of optional end connections are available including, but not limited to threaded ends, socket
weld ends, butt weld ends, flush bottom tank pads, and
flanged ends.
Precision engineered solid stainless steel ball with relief
hole in stem slot prevents build up of cavity pressure while
valve is in open position. Bi-directional floating ball seats
downstream reduce torque and guarantee a bubbletight shut off.
Heavy duty stainless steel bolting is protected from outside
environment assuring valve integrity.
Heat numbers are provided on all valve bodies and ends.
