3/8" Bronze Ball Valve for Water and Steam Lines

The Apollo 70LF14201 is a two-piece bronze ball valve with a 3/8 inch FNPT connection designed for inline installation. It handles water and steam in residential or light commercial plumbing systems. The chrome-plated brass ball and standard port provide reliable shut-off for compatible media.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw in Normal Use

This mechanical valve has no electrical components so it produces no noise and draws no power during operation. The bronze body and chrome-plated brass ball tolerate steam pressures up to 150 psi and water pressures up to 600 psi. A vacuum service rating of 29 in Hg allows use in suction lines without leakage.

Behaviour Under Sustained Load Rather Than Short

The two-piece construction and non-locking handle are built for repeated cycling in continuous service conditions. Maximum operating pressure of 600 psi for water and 150 psi for steam is maintained over extended periods. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Apollo 70LF14201 valve and what step is often missed?

Thread the 3/8" FNPT ends onto matching male pipe threads using suitable sealant; the step often missed is tightening to the correct torque without over-stressing the bronze body.

What maintenance or replacement will the Apollo 70LF14201 need over time?

Inspect the chrome-plated brass ball and PTFE seats periodically for wear or mineral build-up; replace the valve if leakage appears at the stem or ports.

Which pressure limit is reached first during sustained steam use?

The 150 psi steam rating is lower than the 600 psi water rating, so steam service hits its limit first.
