3/8" Bronze Globe Valve
This 3/8-inch bronze globe valve handles fluid and steam in residential or light commercial plumbing. Rising-stem design with a hand-wheel provides positive shut-off and throttling control. Rated for 300 psi fluid pressure and 150 psi steam working pressure.
Replaces worn globe valves
Swap out a leaking or seized globe valve of the same 3/8-inch FNPT size and 300 psi rating. The jump is worth it when the old body shows corrosion, the stem no longer rises cleanly, or the seat fails to hold pressure at 406 °F.
Threaded FNPT installation
Screw the valve onto matching 3/8-inch FNPT pipe threads using appropriate sealant; the 2 1/16-inch face-to-face length fits standard spacing. Common issues include cross-threading the bronze threads, over-tightening and cracking the body, or debris preventing the rising stem from seating fully.

Questions about this item
What pipe size and connection type does the 590T globe valve use?
The valve is sized for 3/8 in pipe and has FNPT x FNPT threaded connections.
How do I install the valve so the rising stem and hand wheel operate correctly?
Mount the tee-pattern body with flow direction aligned to the arrow, then tighten both FNPT ends evenly so the stem rises straight without binding.
What pressure and temperature limits determine when the bronze body or stem needs replacement?
Replace if system pressure exceeds 300 psi fluid or 150 psi steam, or if fluid temperature surpasses 406 °F.
