Apollo Valves 78266201 Stem Extension Kit 94VLF 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The APOLLO VALVES 78266201 is a stem extension kit designed to add 2.25 inches of length to the valve stem on compatible 94VLF series ball valves with a 3/4 inch valve body. Stem extension kits are used when the valve operator needs to be repositioned away from the valve body, typically due to insulation thickness, wall depth, or limited access clearance. This kit allows a technician to actuate or manually operate the valve without direct contact with the valve body itself. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters during new construction or retrofit service work.

This stem extension kit is suited for applications where 94VLF series valves are installed in locations that require extended reach to the handle or actuator. Common scenarios include valves buried in insulation on chilled water or domestic water lines, valves installed through wall penetrations, or valves in mechanical rooms with congested piping layouts. The 3/4 inch sizing corresponds to the valve body size the kit is designed to fit.

Key Features

• Adds 2.25 inches of stem extension length to the valve operator
• Designed specifically for the 94VLF series 3/4 inch ball valve
• Allows valve operation in restricted or insulated piping installations
• OEM-matched fit for direct installation without field modification

Compatibility

Designed for use with APOLLO VALVES 94VLF series ball valves in the 3/4 inch body size. Refer to the 94VLF series documentation to confirm fitment with specific valve configurations before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling any valve components. Follow applicable codes including IPC and local plumbing authority requirements for valve accessibility in concealed or insulated installations. Do not overtighten stem components, as this may affect valve operation or sealing.
