Zoro Select 1-1/2" Bronze Check Valve
This inline spring check valve uses a bronze body with sweat-to-sweat connections for 1-1/2 inch copper piping. It suits general-purpose plumbing where backflow prevention is required in horizontal or vertical runs.
Sustained flow and pressure limits
The valve handles continuous water pressure up to 200 psi and temperatures up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. A 304 stainless steel spring maintains a consistent 4.3 psi cracking pressure during extended operation.
Sweat connection practical limits
Sweat joints demand clean copper and proper soldering technique to seal reliably at the rated 200 psi. The 4 15/16 inch length and 2 21/64 inch width define the space needed inside the pipe run.

Questions about this item
How much heat can the 1-1/2" bronze valve handle before the 4.3 psi spring check loses reliability?
The bronze body and 304 stainless steel spring are rated for continuous service up to 250 °F, so the 4.3 psi cracking pressure remains consistent throughout that temperature range.
What pipe preparation do I need before sweating this 1-1/2" valve into my copper lines?
You need clean 1-1/2" copper tube, flux, lead-free solder and a torch; the sweat-by-sweat ends accept standard copper tubing of that nominal size.
Will the 26 gpm flow rating cause excessive pressure drop on my older 1/2 hp circulator pump?
At 26 gpm the valve is designed for low restriction; typical residential circulators operate well below that flow, so pressure drop stays minimal.
