Apollo Valves 77CLF14601A 2-piece Ball Valve 1-1/4 in Fnpt

Product Description

The APOLLO VALVES 77CLF14601A is a 2-piece, full-port ball valve from the 77CLF-A series, designed for shut-off service in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. The valve features a bronze body, a chrome-plated brass or 316 stainless steel ball, a 316 stainless steel stem, and RPTFE seats and softgoods, making it suitable for water service at demanding working pressures. It carries a 600 psi cold water pressure (CWP) rating and a temperature rating of 450 degrees F. The 1-1/4 inch FNPT end connections and full-port orifice minimize flow restriction. A standard lever handle allows for quick quarter-turn operation. Manufactured domestically and rated lead-free.

The 77CLF14601A is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical systems where a reliable threaded isolation valve is required. The FNPT end style makes it compatible with standard NPT pipe threads, and the full-port design ensures unrestricted flow through the 1-1/4 inch orifice. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers. The valve is well suited for main line shut-off, branch isolation, and equipment service valve applications in water distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASME standards. Shut off system pressure and drain the line completely before removing or installing any valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads before making up connections, and tighten to appropriate wrench-tight engagement without over-torquing the bronze body. Confirm the lever handle is oriented correctly to indicate open and closed positions after installation.
