What this valve is and who needs it
The Legend Valve 102-312 is a forged brass gas valve with 3/8-inch flare connections on both ends. It is rated for T-3000 service and intended for installers or maintenance teams working on gas distribution lines. Buyers who need a different connection size or a valve certified for potable water should look elsewhere. The product is supplied new and carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.
What it replaces and when to upgrade
This valve replaces an existing 3/8-inch flare gas valve that has reached the end of its service life or no longer meets the T-3000 pressure rating. The upgrade is worth it when the current fitting shows signs of wear, corrosion or leakage during routine inspection. Orders of $75 or more ship free from the manufacturer, which can reduce cost on larger replacement projects.
Installation ease and common pitfalls
Installation requires standard flare nut wrenches to mate the 3/8-inch flare ends without damaging the soft brass seats. The most common issue is over-tightening the flare nuts, which can crack the forged brass body or distort the sealing surface. Always pressure-test the joint with an approved leak detection solution before returning the system to service.

Questions about this item
What size flare connections does the Legend Valve 102-312 use for gas line fitting?
The valve has 3/8 inch flare ends on both inlet and outlet, so the gas tubing must match that flare size for a proper seal.
Which step is often missed when installing the Legend Valve 102-312 T-3000 gas valve?
Applying a gas-rated thread sealant to the flare faces before tightening is frequently overlooked, yet it is essential for a leak-free joint.
How often should the Legend Valve 102-312 forged brass gas valve be inspected or replaced?
Check the valve annually for corrosion or leakage; replace it if the handle becomes stiff, the body shows pitting, or any gas smell is detected.
