Anderson Metals 759135-02 Straight Needle Valve 1/8 in

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 759135-02 is a straight needle valve designed for precise flow control in plumbing and fluid-handling systems. Built with a lead-free brass body and a metal brass seat, this valve delivers reliable shutoff and throttling performance in applications where accurate flow regulation is required. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and handles temperatures from -45 degrees F to 250 degrees F. The 1/8 inch MIP x FIP end connections make installation straightforward on standard threaded pipe runs. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This needle valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, instrumentation lines, and fluid control systems where a compact 1/8 inch straight-pattern valve is required. The MIP x FIP thread configuration allows it to thread directly into existing female pipe fittings or receive a male-threaded line without adapters, simplifying the connection at instrument ports, gauge taps, and similar low-flow service points.

• Lead-free brass body meets requirements for potable water and general fluid service
• Metal brass seat provides a durable, long-lasting sealing surface compared to soft-seat alternatives
• 150 psi maximum working pressure suitable for a wide range of residential and light commercial service conditions
• Wide temperature range of -45 degrees F to 250 degrees F covers most standard plumbing and instrumentation applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for 1/8 inch threaded needle valve applications in residential and light commercial plumbing and fluid-control systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line completely before removing the existing valve or fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the connection. Do not overtighten threaded brass fittings, as excess torque can crack the body or distort the seat.
