  • Full-port design ensures unrestricted flow

Product Identity

The Apollo 82LF24301 is a 1/2-inch sweat bronze ball valve designed for inline plumbing installations. It features a three-piece body construction with a full-port 316 stainless steel ball and a non-locking lever handle for manual two-way flow control.

Suitable Applications

This valve handles steam up to 150 psi and water or other media up to 600 psi, with a vacuum service rating of 29 in Hg. It is not rated for combustible gas service or 3-A sanitary compliance, so installers needing those certifications should look elsewhere.

Installation Notes

The sweat connection requires standard copper pipe soldering tools and flux for a permanent joint. The three-piece design allows the centre section to be removed for maintenance without cutting the line. Overheating the bronze body during soldering can damage internal seats, so heat control is critical.

Questions about this item

What pipe size must I already have for the 1/2" sweat connection?

You need 1/2 inch copper tubing ready for sweat soldering; the valve body is bronze with a straight, inline design.

Can the 600 psi rated valve stay in line with older 150 psi steam components?

Yes, the valve handles up to 600 psi water pressure and 150 psi steam, so it exceeds the rating of legacy 150 psi steam parts.

How do I verify the 316 stainless steel ball is sealing correctly after installation?

Pressurise the line to working pressure and check for leaks; the full-port ball and 29 in Hg vacuum rating indicate a tight shut-off when the lever is closed.
