Apollo 77VLF14301 Brass Ball Valve
This manual two-way ball valve uses a brass body with a stainless steel ball. The full-port design handles water service at up to 300 psi operating pressure. It carries a vacuum service rating of 29 in Hg and a 15 psi steam rating. The lever handle is non-locking.
Who This Suits And Who It Does Not
Installers needing a press-connect valve for residential or light commercial water lines will find the 1/2 in nominal size convenient. The valve is not rated for combustible gas service. Buyers requiring 3-A sanitary compliance or a locking handle should look at other models.
Installation Notes And Common Issues
Press connections require the correct tool and jaw set for the tubing used. Improper pressing is the most frequent cause of leaks. Verify that local codes accept this valve for the intended application. The Proposition 65 warning indicates chemical content that may affect material selection in some jurisdictions.

Questions about this item
Which pipe size and press tool must I already have to install the 1/2 in press-end valve?
You need 1/2 in copper or stainless tubing and a compatible press tool with the correct jaw for that diameter.
Will the 300 psi rated brass body and stainless ball handle the same pressures as my existing 1/2 in threaded valves?
Yes, the valve is rated for 300 psi water working pressure and 15 psi steam, matching typical residential supply conditions.
How can I verify the full-port ball is sealing correctly after pressing the connections?
Pressurise the line and inspect each press joint for leaks; the lever should move freely from fully open to fully closed.
