2. Create a product, put all the parts in (Seal_ball - two times) and add from the Catalog Browser a M8
NUT GRADE A (ISO4032).

Use Coincident Constraint to align Body1, Body 2 and the two Seal_Ball.

Use contact Constraint to Fit the Seals inside each Body

Use Coincidence constraint to align the Neck, Handle, Seal_Neck and Nut:

Use contact Constraint to assembly them as follows:

Make a Coincidence constraint between the axis of the Neck and the axis of Body 1:

Make two Contact Constraints between the ball and the Neck (lateral surface & bottom surface):

Align the lateral surface of the handle with groove of the ball with an angle of 90deg. Align the hole of the Ball
with Body1 or 2.This signifies that the valve is OPEN (fluid can flow through the valve).
