Apollo 701032741 Bronze Ball Valve

The Apollo 701032741 is a 1/2" FNPT bronze ball valve designed for inline plumbing installations. Its standard port construction suits residential and light commercial water, oil or gas lines where a quarter-turn shut-off is required.

Sustained pressure and temperature performance

Rated for 600 psi CWP, the valve maintains a seal across a temperature range of -20 to 450 degrees F. The RPTFE seats and PTFE body seal resist creep during long-term pressurisation, while the chrome-plated brass ball and 316 stainless steel stem withstand corrosion in continuous service.

Installation notes and common issues

The FNPT x FNPT threads connect directly to female pipe fittings without adapters. A blowout-proof stem prevents the stem from ejecting under pressure. Over-tightening the locking lever handle can damage the vinyl grip, and pipe dope on the threads may interfere with the PTFE seal if applied excessively.

Questions about this item

How much heat can the Apollo 701032741 bronze ball valve handle during continuous operation?

The valve is rated for temperatures from -20 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, so it will tolerate sustained high-temperature service without degradation.

What piping does the 1/2 inch FNPT connection on this valve require?

It needs 1/2 inch male NPT threaded pipe or fittings on both ends to make a leak-free inline installation.

Will the chrome-plated brass ball and PTFE seats resist corrosion when paired with older steel pipe?

Yes, the chrome-plated brass ball, RPTFE seats and PTFE body seal are chemically compatible with typical ferrous piping systems.
