1/2 in Bronze Gate Valve
This 1/2 in bronze gate valve is designed for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where reliable shut-off is required. It suits installers who need a durable valve for water supply lines with standard FNPT connections. The non-rising stem and hand-wheel handle provide straightforward manual operation. It is not for buyers who need automated actuation or remote control capability.
200 psi CWP and 200 Degrees F Limits
The valve is rated for a maximum cold water pressure of 200 psi and a maximum fluid temperature of 200 Degrees F. These limits define the safe operating envelope for typical hot and cold water distribution. Exceeding either pressure or temperature ratings can compromise the bronze body and wedge seal. The ASTM B-584 standard governs the bronze alloy composition used in the body and wedge.
Simple Threaded Installation
Installation uses standard FNPT threads on both inlet and outlet for direct connection to 1/2 in pipe. The compact 1 13/16 in inlet-to-outlet length fits tight spaces without special tools. Common issues include cross-threading during assembly and debris preventing full wedge closure. The non-rising stem means handle position does not indicate open or closed status visually.

What does the 200 psi rating mean when the valve is installed?
It is the maximum cold water pressure the bronze body is rated to contain at ambient temperature.
How does the ASTM B-584 standard affect the valve's performance?
It defines the bronze alloy composition for the body and wedge, ensuring consistent corrosion resistance and strength.
