1/4" FNPT Bronze Ball Valve

The Apollo 70LF14101 is a manual two-way ball valve with a straight body style constructed from bronze. It features a chrome-plated brass ball with a standard port design and a non-locking handle. This inline valve suits plumbing installations controlling water or steam flow in residential or light commercial systems.

Pressure and Service Limits

The valve handles a maximum operating pressure of 600 psi and a steam pressure limit of 150 psi. It carries a vacuum service rating of 29 in Hg. Combustible gas service is not rated and the product does not hold a 3-A standard compliance rating. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

1/4 Inch Nominal Valve Size

The nominal valve size is 1/4 in with FNPT end connections, which determines compatibility with existing piping. Builders needing a larger bore or a different connection type such as sweat or compression will require a different valve model. The two-piece bronze body and standard port configuration are fixed by this size specification.

Questions about this item

Which Apollo ball valve model fits a 1/4-inch FNPT line?

The 70LF14101 is a straight-pattern, two-piece bronze valve with a 1/4-inch FNPT connection and standard-port chrome-plated brass ball.

What does the 600 psi operating-pressure rating mean when the valve is installed?

It indicates the maximum non-shock cold-water pressure the valve body can handle in normal service; steam duty is limited to 150 psi.

How does the FNPT thread standard affect what pipe or fittings can be used?

Female National Pipe Taper threads seal on the taper, so the valve accepts any 1/4-inch male NPT pipe or fitting without adapters.
