Body

The body is the main pressure containing structure of the valve and the most but easily identified as it forms the mass of the globe valve. It contains all of the valve's internal parts that will come in contact with the substance being controlled by the valve. The bonnet is connected to the body and provides the containment of the fluid, gas, or slurry that is being controlled.

The two ports may be oriented straight across from each other on the body,^[5] or oriented at an angle such as a 90
