Anderson Metals Corp 759106-04 Needle Valve 1/4 X 1/4 Inch

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 759106-04 is a 1/4-inch x 1/4-inch needle valve designed for precise flow control in plumbing and mechanical systems. Needle valves provide fine throttling control by using a tapered pin to regulate flow through a small orifice, making them well-suited for applications that require accurate adjustment rather than simple on/off shutoff. This valve is lead-free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water systems where lead-free materials are mandated. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This needle valve is applicable in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration piping where controlled flow restriction is needed. The 1/4-inch x 1/4-inch end configuration fits into compact tubing runs and instrument lines. Its lead-free construction makes it appropriate for installations subject to safe drinking water regulations. The valve ships in a package quantity of 5 units, making it practical for service contractors stocking common fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing or installing any valve. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape compatible with the service fluid, and avoid over-tightening the packing nut, which can damage the needle seat.
