Our INCOVALVE ball valves come in a three-piece full port floating ball design in a wide variety of end connections and materials as well as a flanged, full bore, split body floating ball construction available in various materials and flange drilling options. Designed to be robust and manufactured to the highest quality standards, the valves offer superior service life, even in the most challenging industrial applications. 

AR Controls INCOAIR actuators are available in stainless steel and aluminium alloy rack and pinion actuators, high-performance, high-torque output scotch yoke actuators, and stainless steel and standard linear actuators. All actuators are available in either double-acting or fail-safe, with the latter being achieved through spring return or air failsafe reservoir designs.
