It features a chrome-plated brass ball and a blowout-proof stem for long-term service integrity. Rated at 600 psig WOG (water, oil, gas) cold and 150 psig saturated steam, this valve handles a wide range of service conditions. The zinc-plated steel lever handle includes a securely attached vinyl grip for positive, comfortable operation. A licensed plumber or HVAC technician is the typical installer for this type of inline shutoff valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve is suited for residential and light commercial installations where a compact, quarter-turn shutoff is required.
