An ASTM A350 LF6 Class 2 Globe Valve is a type of valve made from carbon and low alloy steel forgings that adhere to the ASTM A350 Grade LF6 Class 2 material specification. This standard mandates notch toughness testing for various piping components, including forged flanges, fittings, valves, and similar forged and machined parts. The globe valve, distinct from a ball valve, is utilized for flow regulation in a pipeline. It comprises a movable plug or disc element and a stationary ring seat housed within a generally spherical body. The term "globe" in its name refers to the spherical shape of the valve body, which is divided into two halves by an internal baffle.
