  • Ground joint union tailpiece simplifies installation and removal
  • Adjustable packing and rising stem allow precise flow control
  • Heat resistant hand wheel ensures safe operation at temperature

Ideal for low-pressure steam and hot-water radiators

This 1-1/2" brass angled valve is built for low-pressure steam or circulated hot-water systems. It carries a 15 PSI WSP rating and a 60 PSI non-shock hot-water rating. The ground-joint union tailpiece and nut use IPS threads for a secure connection. Adjustable packing and a rising stem allow precise flow control.

Replaces worn or leaking radiator valves

Swap out a valve that no longer seals or operates smoothly. The jump is worth it when the existing unit drips at the packing, binds on the stem or cannot hold the required pressure class. Brass construction resists corrosion in hydronic loops. The heat-resistant hand wheel stays cool enough for manual adjustment.

Holds rating under continuous system pressure

The valve maintains its 15 PSI steam and 60 PSI hot-water ratings during extended heating cycles. Adjustable packing can be tightened in situ to counter long-term stem wear. Rising-stem design shows valve position at a glance. Brass body and ground-joint union endure repeated thermal expansion without distortion.

Questions about this item

What pipe size does the 1-1/2 inch IPS union tailpiece connect to?

The ground-joint union tailpiece and nut are sized for 1-1/2 inch IPS iron-pipe threads, so the valve threads directly onto matching male pipe ends.

How is the rising-stem packing adjusted after the valve is threaded onto the pipe?

Tighten the packing nut just enough to stop stem leakage while the valve is cold; over-tightening makes the hand wheel hard to turn once steam pressure builds.

When should the adjustable packing or heat-resistant hand wheel be replaced?

Replace the packing if steam weeps past the stem after proper adjustment, and replace the hand wheel if it cracks or becomes too hot to grip during normal 15 PSI steam service.
