Brass Gate Valve 1-1/4
The Legend Valve 104-406 is a 1-1/4 inch S-401 brass gate valve designed for plumbing installations. It provides reliable shut-off control for water supply lines in residential and commercial systems. This fitting suits plumbers and maintenance teams needing a durable valve for new pipework or replacement jobs. Buyers requiring alternative connection types or different pressure ratings will need a separate product.
Normal Operation Characteristics
The brass construction resists corrosion during standard water service use. Gate valves operate with a linear stem motion that requires minimal torque when opening or closing under normal pressure. No external power or actuation is needed, so the component adds no electrical load or audible noise to the system. California Proposition 65 notices apply to materials in this valve.
Installation Fit and Clearance
The valve features a 1-1/4 inch connection sized for matching pipe threads. Its compact gate mechanism allows installation in tighter runs where a full-port ball valve might not clear. The straight-through flow path reduces restriction when the gate is fully open. Ensure the surrounding pipework aligns with the valve body length and thread specification before assembly.

Questions about this item
How is the 1-1/4" S-401 brass gate valve installed and what step is often missed?
Thread the valve onto clean male pipe threads using PTFE tape or pipe dope on the threads only; the step often missed is ensuring the gate is fully open before tightening to prevent debris from scoring the seat.
What maintenance or replacement will the 104-406 gate valve need over time?
The packing nut may need periodic tightening to stop stem leaks and the gate seat can wear after many cycles requiring valve replacement; no internal service parts are offered.
What limit appears first on the S-401 brass gate valve under sustained flow?
The brass body and gate restrict use to water, oil or gas at moderate pressure and temperature; sustained high velocity flow can erode the seat and cause premature leakage.
