B38;K Llc 107-401NL Lead Free Full Port Ball Valve

Product Description

The B38;K LLC 107-401NL is a lead-free, full port ball valve constructed from forged brass, designed for use in plumbing, HVAC, and general piping systems where reliable shutoff is required. At 0.25 inches in size with female pipe threads on both ends, this valve delivers a 600 psi non-shock WOG (water, oil, gas) pressure rating and a 150 psi WSP steam rating. The full port design minimizes pressure drop across the valve, making it suitable for applications where flow restriction must be kept low. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this valve in both residential and light commercial settings.

This valve is appropriate for water, oil, and gas service lines in residential and light commercial installations. Its operating temperature range of -20 to 300 degrees F makes it compatible with a broad range of fluid handling applications, including domestic hot and cold water supply, hydronic heating systems, and compressed air lines. The lead-free brass construction satisfies requirements for potable water contact under applicable plumbing codes. Threaded ends comply with ANSI B1.20.1 for consistent fitment with standard NPT pipe connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water or gas supply and relieve all system pressure before installation or removal. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly; do not overtighten, as forged brass fittings can crack under excessive torque. Verify that the valve handle is in the fully closed position before restoring system pressure.
