Apollo 3/4" Bronze Ball Valve

The Apollo 70LF104HC is a two-piece bronze ball valve with a 3/4 inch FNPT inlet and a hose cap outlet. It is designed for manual on-off control of steam or water lines in residential and commercial plumbing systems. The valve features a chrome-plated brass ball with a standard port configuration. It is supplied new and complies with California Proposition 65 warnings.

Installation uses standard FNPT threading

The valve installs inline using the 3/4 inch FNPT connection, requiring standard pipe thread sealant or tape for a leak-free joint. The non-locking handle provides simple quarter-turn operation. The two-piece body construction means the valve cannot be easily disassembled for internal cleaning or seat replacement without removing the entire unit from the piping.

Rated for 600 psi water and 150 psi steam

The maximum operating pressure is 600 psi for water, oil, or gas, dropping to 150 psi for saturated steam service. Vacuum service is rated to 29 in Hg. The valve is not rated for combustible gas service and does not carry 3-A sanitary standard compliance, limiting its use in food or pharmaceutical processing.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the valve is operating correctly after installation?

Turn the handle through its full range and feel for smooth, positive stops; then pressurise the system within the 600 psi operating limit and inspect all joints for leaks.

What comes with the valve and what must I supply myself?

The valve body with its integrated hose cap is included; you will need to provide compatible 3/4 inch FNPT piping or adapters and thread sealant for the connections.

Which version should I choose for a steam line rated at 150 psi?

This model is rated for 150 psi steam service and 600 psi water service, so it suits steam lines up to that pressure; select it when your system demands those limits.
