Apollo Valves 670750712616 Extension Stem Kit 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The APOLLO VALVES 670750712616 is a medium extension stem kit designed for 1-1/4 inch ball valves. Also referenced as part number 78-443-01, this kit provides a 2-1/4 inch extension stem that relocates the valve operator to a more accessible position. It is used in piping systems where insulation, wall depth, or clearance restrictions make the standard stem handle difficult to reach. Plumbers and pipefitters typically install this component during new construction or when retrofitting insulated lines.

This extension stem kit is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where ball valve accessibility is a concern. It is designed for use with Apollo Valves 70, 77F, 77FLF, 77V, and 77VLF series ball valves in 1-1/4 inch pipe size configurations. Typical installation scenarios include insulated domestic water lines, buried or recessed valve installations, and mechanical rooms where tight access requires an extended operator reach.

Key Features

• Medium-length extension stem provides 2-1/4 inches of additional operator reach
• Sized for 1-1/4 inch ball valves in the Apollo 70 and 77 series families
• Direct OEM-referenced replacement using Apollo part number 78-443-01

Compatibility

Compatible with Apollo Valves 70, 77F, 77FLF, 77V, and 77VLF series ball valves in 1-1/4 inch size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling the valve operator. Verify that the extension stem kit matches the valve series and pipe size before beginning work. Follow applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements for valve accessibility in concealed or insulated installations.
