Apollo 1/2 in FNPT Ball Valve
The Apollo 7010301 is a manual two-way ball valve with 1/2 in female NPT connections on both ends. It is built for on/off flow control in piping systems and suits installers who need a standard-port bronze valve for general service lines. The two-piece inline body allows straightforward assembly into existing pipework.
600 PSI CWP Rating and PTFE Seals
The valve carries a 600 PSI cold working pressure rating and a 150 PSI working steam pressure rating across a temperature range of -20 to 450 degrees F. PTFE seats and seals provide chemical compatibility and tight shut-off, while the blowout-resistant brass stem stays retained under pressure. Factory testing confirms each unit meets the stated pressure class before it leaves the plant.
Replaces Worn Gate or Globe Valves
This valve replaces older gate or globe valves where quick quarter-turn operation and lower torque are preferred. The jump is worth it when a system needs faster isolation, reduced stem leakage risk, or a lighter lever handle for frequent cycling. It is not for applications requiring full-port flow capacity or automated actuation.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1/2 in FNPT connections and which step is often missed?
Thread the valve onto 1/2 in male NPT pipe ends using pipe sealant on the male threads only; the step often missed is applying sealant to the male threads rather than the female ports, and avoiding over-tightening which can crack the bronze body.
What maintenance will the PTFE seats and seals need over time?
The PTFE seats and seals are designed for the full -20 to 450 degrees F range and 600 PSI CWP rating; they typically require no routine maintenance, but if leakage appears at the stem or ports the seats and seals must be replaced as a set.
What limit appears first during sustained steam use at 150 PSI WSP?
The 150 PSI WSP steam rating is the primary limit; sustained operation at this pressure and temperatures up to 450 degrees F will stress the PTFE seats before the bronze body or chrome plated ball reach their limits.
