Bronze ball valve trap with lever handle, half-inch size

Apollo

Apollo 7790301 1/2 in Bronze Ball Valve Trap

SKU CH-MB06-A72J0 MPN 7790301

A 1/2-inch bronze ball valve trap rated for 600 psi operating pressure and 150 psi steam service

  • TypeDrain Components
  • Bronze body resists corrosion in steam lines
  • Full-port design maintains unrestricted flow through the valve
  • 600 psi operating pressure handles demanding system loads
  • 150 psi steam rating suits heating applications
  • Vacuum service rated to 29 in Hg for negative-pressure circuits

What This Valve Does

The Apollo 7790301 is a two-way manual ball valve built for plumbing systems that handle steam and other media. Its bronze body and chrome-plated brass ball suit installers who need a straight, full-port inline shut-off for half-inch piping. It is not for buyers who need a three-way diverting valve, an actuated model or a locking handle.

Sustained Pressure Behaviour

Under continuous service the valve holds up to 600 psi operating pressure and 150 psi steam pressure. The two-piece bronze construction resists deformation during long thermal cycles, and the full-port ball keeps flow restriction low when the lever is fully open. It is not for systems that exceed those pressure limits or require combustible-gas ratings.

Deciding Specification

The nominal valve size is 1/2 in with SAE threads, so the fitting must match that exact connection. The vacuum service rating reaches 29 in Hg, and the handle is a non-locking lever. If the piping uses a different thread standard or a larger bore, this valve will not fit.

Questions about this item

Does the 600 psi operating pressure create noticeable vibration or heat when the valve runs continuously?

The bronze body and chrome-plated brass ball are designed for steady 600 psi service; no vibration or heat buildup is expected under normal inline flow.

What pipe thread and sealant must I already have to install the 1/2 in SAE bronze ball valve?

You need 1/2 inch SAE male threads on both pipe ends and a compatible thread sealant rated for 600 psi water or 150 psi steam.

Will the full-port 1/2 in valve restrict flow in a legacy copper line that has seen decades of scale buildup?

The full-port design matches the nominal bore of 1/2 inch copper, so it adds no extra restriction beyond the existing line condition.
