1/2-inch Bronze Swing Check Valve
This 1/2-inch bronze swing check valve uses a Y-pattern body with FNPT connections. It is designed for plumbing systems that need automatic backflow prevention in horizontal or vertical runs. The bronze body and seat handle water up to 200 psi at 150 degrees F and steam up to 125 psi WSP.
Cracking pressure and orientation limits
The valve opens at a low .5 psi cracking pressure and supports full flow at 10 gpm. It mounts in horizontal or vertical orientations but cannot be used where cracking pressure must exceed .5 psi. Temperature range spans -20 to 425 degrees F, limiting use in extreme cryogenic or superheated steam service beyond those bounds.
2.625-inch overall length constraint
The fixed 2.625-inch overall length determines whether this valve fits between existing pipe fittings. Installers must verify that spacing before purchase because the dimension cannot be adjusted. Systems needing a different face-to-face measurement require an alternative valve body.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 1/2" size or a different diameter for my plumbing?
This valve is built for 1/2 inch FNPT connections and delivers up to 10 gpm; match it to the pipe size already in your system.
What does the 200 psi rating mean when the valve is installed?
At 150 °F water the valve holds 200 psi; at 425 °F the steam limit drops to 125 psi WSP.
How does the FNPT x FNPT connection affect the install?
Both ends are female NPT threads, so you thread male pipe or adapters directly into each side without extra fittings.
