Quarter-Inch Bronze Ball Valve

This quarter-inch bronze ball valve provides manual on-off control for water and steam lines. It has a straight two-piece body with a chrome-plated brass ball and standard port. The valve uses female NPT threads for inline installation and carries a 600 psi operating pressure rating.

Suitable for Simple Shut-Off.

Installers needing a basic quarter-inch shut-off for water or low-pressure steam will find this valve fits. It lacks a locking handle and 3-A sanitary rating, so it is not suited for processes requiring secured positions or high-purity compliance.

600 psi Operating Pressure Rating

The 600 psi maximum operating pressure is the primary figure that determines whether this valve matches the system design. Steam service is limited to 150 psi and vacuum service reaches 29 in Hg.

Questions about this item

Will the 1/4 in FNPT threads on this Apollo 70LF-101-01 match the copper fittings I already have installed?

Yes, the 1/4 inch female NPT threads are a standard plumbing size and will connect directly to matching male NPT fittings on existing copper, brass or steel pipework.

How can I confirm the two-piece bronze body and chrome-plated brass ball are sealing correctly once installed?

Pressurise the line up to the 600 psi rating for water or 150 psi for steam; the valve should hold pressure with no leakage past the ball or through the body joints.

Does the box include any pipe sealant or adapters, or must I supply them separately?

The valve ships as a single unit with its non-locking handle already fitted; thread sealant, tape and any transition fittings are not included and must be purchased separately.
