Manual Two-Way Bronze Ball Valve

The valve is rated for natural gas and steam service up to 150 psi steam and 600 psi operating pressure. It carries a vacuum rating of 29 in Hg. Buyers needing a valve certified for drinking water or a different pressure class should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the 1-1/2" FNPT threads on this Apollo 8010701 valve match my existing bronze gas piping?

The valve uses 1-1/2 inch FNPT threads, the standard taper pipe thread for bronze gas piping of that nominal size, so it will thread directly onto matching male NPT fittings without adapters.

How can I verify the valve is sealing properly after I install it in a natural gas line?

Pressurise the line up to the 600 psi operating limit, then apply leak detection solution to every joint; bubbles indicate a leak, while a steady pressure reading on a gauge and no gas odour confirm the full-port ball and chrome-plated bronze seats are sealing.

Does the 8010701 come with pipe sealant or flanges, or do I need to buy them separately?

The box contains only the two-piece bronze valve with its non-locking handle; thread sealant, pipe dope, or flanges for the 1-1/2" FNPT connections must be purchased separately.
