| Type | Characteristics | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|
| Floating Ball Valve | Ball floats between seats, seals by pressure | Water, gas, oil pipelines |
| Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve | Ball supported by trunnions, reduces seat wear | High-pressure oil & gas |
| Full Port (Full Bore) | Bore size = pipe size, minimal pressure drop | Process industries |
| Reduced Port (Standard Bore) | Smaller bore, compact, lower cost | HVAC, utilities |
| 3-Way / 4-Way Ball Valve | Diverts or mixes flow | Distribution, mixing systems |
| Top Entry Ball Valve | Maintenance without removing valve from pipeline | Power plants, petrochemical |
