Ball valves are often subjected to extreme conditions, especially when used in pipelines.
To withstand even the highest loads, Böhmer ball valves are therefore welded through the entire cross-section. Thus, weakening of the construction, for example by stress corrosion cracking on the weld seams, is actively counteracted.
Böhmer is one of the few manufacturers that actually welds the weld seams of its fittings over the entire cross-section using a complex process.
Various testing procedures are used to confirm the tightness of the entire ball valve. Furthermore, weld seams undergo visual, magnet particle, ultrasonic and if requested radiographic testing.
And we do not rely only on ourselves. We contract external institutions to confirm the perfection of our products. The weld seams thus comply with the legal regulations for the construction of pipelines, reservoirs, tanks and containers.
We spend a great deal of time and money and make considerable effort to ensure that the weld seams can withstand extreme conditions. That is the reason why our full-welded ball valves operate reliably even under high pressure. The precision design and manufacturing of all components enables safe operation at all times
Our fully-welded ball valves offer almost no surfaces liable to corrosion. Water, dust and sand cannot penetrate the ball valve and can therefore not settle in any cracks. Corrosive influences from the outside are thus actively reduced and the service life of our ball valves is increased significantly.
Fire-Safe ball valves have been specially designed for use in critical areas. Thanks to the special design and the particularly resistant materials, Böhmer Fire-Safe ball valves retain their full functional reliability even at temperatures above +650 ° C.
In addition to their robust design in respect to internal and external influences, our ball valves provide considerable savings potential for transporting, installing and servicing ball valves. Our ball valves are thus an economical solution, especially in the long term.
All welding seams are carried out by our trained welding specialists and checked by our welding engineers. Our company is process-tested according to DIN EN ISO 3834-3729 and AD-HP 2/1 (TÜV)
Our regular customers are demanding and therefore appreciate our fi rst-class service. They have relied on the quality and reliability of BÖHMER ball valves for decades. We are proud to be recognized as one of the leading valve manufacturers.
Split body ball valves up to a nominal diameter of 56 inch are a integral component part of the Böhmer product line. Ball valves of this design are well suited for extremely abrasive and corrosive fluids.
Böhmer ball valves with two-piece or three-piece bodies are designed for easy maintenance thanks to their continually improved design. Components or complete shutdown units can be replaced easily and efficiently.
Böhmer split body ball valves were designed for fast and uncomplicated maintenance. High-precision production makes it possible to replace components without any difficulty. Even complete units can be replaced efficiently and economically.
Our ball valves are designed for maximum load capacity. Thanks to the ingenious construction, which reliably absorbs the tensile and compressive forces in the housing, our bolted ball valves are suitable for use in applications like transport pipelines. The use of sturdy materials guarantees a long service life, even when using heavy wearing fluids or aggressive media.
Split ball valves from Böhmer are available with numerous options, such as trunnion mounted balls, spring-loaded seat rings or Double Block and Bleed function. The Valves can be equipped for a wide variety of applications and high pressure levels. Also retrofits to qualify already installed taps for changing conditions of use are possible.
In urban areas, densely populated industrial parks and at all places where every square meter counts and where media in underground pipe systems must be reliably shut off, our buried ball valves are in use.
Buried pipes are complex in construction and are also subject to strict regulations to protect the environment. Therefore, it must be ensured that all components remain emission-free and reliable over long periods of time. Böhmer ball valves are manufactured with experience, great know-how and high quality standards. Thanks to these ingredients, Böhmer ball valves are ideal for use in underground pipelines.
Our valves are characterized by absolute freedom from leaks, extreme longevity and low maintenance requirements. This is ensured, among other things, by the construction with fully welded seams and redundant sealing systems, which ensure that corrosive influences remain outside and the medium stays inside.
The quality of our products is backed up by all necessary certificates and the fulfillment of all standards. In this way, we simultaneously protect the environment and the interests of our customers with our products.

Underwater pipelines run at the bottom of the sea and allow a constant transport of oil and gas from the production site to the industry. The direct connection and the saving of transhipment (for example in tankers) reduces time and costs.
The temperature and pressure conditions at the seafloor as well as the increased requirements for the protection of the sea are particular challenges for pipes and fittings.
Fully welded Subsea ball valves from Böhmer are characterized by their high load capacity, freedom from leakage and maintenance-free operation. Thanks to the fully welded seams and the robust construction, they withstand extreme tensile forces. The built-in materials make them insensitive to corrosion. Thanks to these features, Böhmer ball valves are among the few valves with API6D and API6DSS certification.
For your application we deliver the ball valves with welding ends or flanges. The ball valves can be selectively switched by means of a T-lever, ROV compatible gearboxes or hydraulically.
Multi-way ball valves from Böhmer, with three or four passages up to DN 100, are versatile in the truest sense of the word.
Our valves are used for a variety of purposes. In shipping, for example, they ensure the smooth switching of alternative fuels. At the production of fine chemicals, on the other hand, our ball valves are used within the production lines of the pharmaceutical industry or cosmetics industry. The precise end stops of the Böhmer multi-way ball valves guarantee a safe shut-off or a clear switching between the different passes.
The design of the balls and the tried-and-tested sealing technology prevent uncontrolled mixing of the connected media. We offer a wide range of multi-way ball valves with T, L, and X drilled balls, various material and seal configurations as well as with threads or flange connections.
Ball valves from Böhmer can be found around the globe and in almost every branch of industry.
The performance of our ball valves can best be summarized as follows: Our ball valves of DN 3 DN 1400 are used wherever rapid and safe shut-off is required.
