Apollo 60A70224 Globe Valve Overview
The Apollo 60A70224 is a 316 stainless steel globe valve with a 3/8 inch FNPT connection designed for controlling air fluid or gas flow. It suits plumbing and industrial maintenance professionals who need a corrosion resistant shut off or throttling device for small diameter piping systems.
Thermal Noise and Power Characteristics
This mechanical valve generates no operational noise and draws zero electrical power because it operates solely through manual handle rotation. The 316 stainless steel body withstands a maximum fluid temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit and handles pressures up to 5000 psig at 750 degrees Fahrenheit without thermal degradation.
Sustained Load Behavior
Under continuous service the rising stem design and cross handle maintain reliable sealing through repeated cycling at the rated 5000 psi fluid pressure limit. The tee shaped body and 2 1/4 inch inlet to outlet length provide stable flow control without performance drift during extended use in air fluid or gas applications.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3/8 in FNPT globe valve without damaging the 316 stainless steel threads?
Wrap PTFE tape or apply pipe dope on the male threads only, then thread the valve onto the pipe by hand before final tightening with a wrench on the hex flats; over-torquing the cross handle instead of the body is the common error that strips the rising stem.
What maintenance will the rising-stem cross-handle valve need over time?
Periodically inspect the stem packing for leaks and tighten the packing nut slightly if weeping appears; the 316 stainless body resists corrosion, so only the soft packing and handle set-screw typically require attention.
At what temperature does the 5,000 psi pressure rating cease to apply?
The 5,000 psi rating holds up to 100 °F for fluids; at 750 °F the same valve is rated for 5,000 psig air only, so sustained high-temperature fluid service is the limiting factor.
