1-1/2 in PVC Gate Valve
This 1-1/2 inch PVC gate valve is designed for water service at up to 45 psi. The body and bonnet are PVC with a welded bonnet style, and the stem is 304 stainless steel. A lever handle operates a rising-stem, solid polypropylene wedge.
Suited for low-pressure water lines
Installers needing a simple shut-off for cold-water plumbing at Class 125 pressure will find this valve appropriate. It is not intended for steam systems, high-pressure mains, or applications requiring flanged connections.
45 psi maximum operating pressure
The valve is rated for 45 psi maximum operating pressure and 45 psi maximum steam pressure. This pressure limit is the primary factor in deciding whether the valve matches the system requirements.

Questions about this item
What comes with the Valterra 6109GR gate valve and what extra parts are needed for installation?
The valve body includes a welded PVC bonnet, rising 304 stainless steel stem, solid polypropylene wedge, polypropylene seats, TPE seals and a lever handle. You must supply IPS pipe or fittings for the two female connections, plus thread sealant or solvent cement suitable for PVC.
The listing shows Class 125 and 45 psi — which rating should I use when selecting this valve?
Class 125 identifies the PVC body rating; the 45 psi figure is the maximum operating pressure for water or steam. Size the system so normal pressure stays below 45 psi and the valve will remain within its design limits.
How does the 45 psi maximum pressure affect everyday use in a residential plumbing line?
At 45 psi the valve handles typical municipal supply pressures with margin. If your line regularly exceeds 45 psi, install a pressure-reducing valve upstream; otherwise the gate valve will open, close and seal reliably for water service.
