Manual Two-Way Bronze Ball Valve
This Apollo 8010701 valve is a manual two-way ball valve built for inline installation. It uses a bronze body with a chrome-plated bronze ball and a full-port design. The valve handles natural gas and steam in plumbing and industrial systems.
Suits gas and steam lines; not for potable water
The valve is rated for natural gas and steam service up to 150 psi steam and 600 psi operating pressure. It carries a vacuum rating of 29 in Hg. Buyers needing a valve certified for drinking water or a different pressure class should look elsewhere.
1-1/2 inch FNPT straight connection
The valve has a nominal size of 1-1/2 inches with FNPT threads on both ends in a straight body style. This thread size and pattern determine whether it fits the existing piping without adapters.

Questions about this item
Will the 1-1/2" FNPT threads on this Apollo 8010701 valve match my existing bronze gas piping?
The valve uses 1-1/2 inch FNPT threads, the standard taper pipe thread for bronze gas piping of that nominal size, so it will thread directly onto matching male NPT fittings without adapters.
How can I verify the valve is sealing properly after I install it in a natural gas line?
Pressurise the line up to the 600 psi operating limit, then apply leak detection solution to every joint; bubbles indicate a leak, while a steady pressure reading on a gauge and no gas odour confirm the full-port ball and chrome-plated bronze seats are sealing.
Does the 8010701 come with pipe sealant or flanges, or do I need to buy them separately?
The box contains only the two-piece bronze valve with its non-locking handle; thread sealant, pipe dope, or flanges for the 1-1/2" FNPT connections must be purchased separately.
