The body, trim, and finish are all 316 stainless steel, making this valve well-suited for corrosive or high-purity service environments. PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) seats and seals provide low-friction operation and chemical resistance across a wide range of media. The locking lever handle prevents accidental actuation, an important feature in commercial and industrial installations where inadvertent shutoff or opening can disrupt service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a 3\/8 inch female NPT connection is required on both ends. Common applications include water service lines, chemical distribution, compressed air, and hydronic systems. The full port design minimizes pressure drop across the valve, maintaining system flow rates without restriction. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically specify this valve where corrosion resistance and a positive locking shutoff are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel body, trim, and finish for corrosion resistance in demanding service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull port bore minimizes pressure drop and maintains full flow capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE seats and seals provide chemical resistance and low-friction quarter-turn operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking lever handle prevents unintended valve actuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFNPT x FNPT end connections on both ends for standard threaded pipe assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-piece construction allows in-line service and seat replacement without removing the valve body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for 3\/8 inch female NPT threaded piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before installing or replacing any valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads per standard practice, and do not overtighten threaded connections. Verify that the valve handle is in the closed position before restoring system pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: FNPT x FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full Port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Ball Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeal Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Locking Lever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANVIL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4301659020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542695870770,"sku":"4301659020","price":503.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/38d6aac0aec85fa2a6491ad78c43c986_bf6ace94-5a5e-4a53-b2c0-80519bb77b15.jpg?v=1785904539","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/anvil-4301659020-full-port-ball-valve-3-8-inch-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
