2-1/2" Sweat Brass Ball Valve

The Apollo 94A20901 is a 2-piece inline ball valve built for sweat connections on 2-1/2 inch copper tube. Its full-port brass body and chrome-plated ball deliver unrestricted flow for residential and commercial plumbing systems. PTFE seats and a blowout-proof brass stem ensure reliable shut-off under pressure. Installers who need a sweat-end valve rated for high-temperature service will find it suitable.

400 psi CWP pressure rating and 0 to 400 °F range

The valve handles cold-water pressures up to 400 psi and operates continuously from freezing to 400 °F. PTFE seats maintain a tight seal across this span, while the full-port design minimises pressure drop. Systems exceeding 400 psi or temperatures above 400 °F require a differently rated valve. The sweat ends limit use to copper tube installations only.

Sweat x Sweat connection type

This valve joins directly to 2-1/2 inch copper tube by soldering, so no threaded adapters or press tools are needed. The inline 2-piece body allows inline servicing without cutting the line. Builders working with threaded, press-fit or larger-diameter pipe must select a valve with matching end connections.

Questions about this item

Will the 2-1/2 inch sweat connections on this Apollo 94A20901 valve join directly to my existing copper pipe of the same size?

Yes, the valve uses sweat-by-sweat connections for 2-1/2 inch tube size, so it solders straight onto matching copper pipe without adapters.

How can I verify the blowout-proof stem and PTFE seats are sealing properly after I solder the valve in line?

Pressurise the system up to the 400 psi CWP rating and operate the lever handle through its full quarter turn; no leakage at the stem or ports confirms the seats and stem seal are intact.

Does the box include any flux, solder or pipe-preparation tools for the sweat joints, or must I supply those myself?

The package contains only the brass ball valve with its steel lever handle; flux, solder, emery cloth and any other installation consumables are sold separately.
