    Confused on 3-piece ball valve end cap design

    I know that some manufactures actually change from hexagon to octagon as the size of the 3 piece ball valve increases. As soon as the surface area is big enough to with hold the force of a wrench, the hexagon turns into an octagon. The more sides it has the more convenient it is to place the wrench.
