Kitz 37-034 Bronze Gate Valve 3/4 Inch Fnpt 1000 Psi

Product Description

The KITZ 37-034 is a 3/4-inch bronze gate valve designed for full-bore isolation service in water, oil, and gas piping systems. Threaded female NPT (FNPT) connections on both ends allow direct installation into standard threaded pipe runs. The valve is rated at 1000 psi non-shock cold water, oil, or gas, and 300 psi saturated steam service up to 421 degrees F, with a maximum fluid operating temperature of 550 degrees F. A handwheel operator provides manual open/close control. The Cv flow coefficient of 31 supports high-flow applications in commercial and industrial piping.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic systems, industrial process piping, and fuel oil or gas distribution lines where a reliable threaded isolation valve is required. The bronze body construction offers corrosion resistance in wet and steam service environments. Installers working on steam systems, hot water mains, or gas supply lines will find this valve appropriate for in-line shutoff at equipment connections, manifolds, or service points requiring periodic isolation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IFGC for gas applications. Shut off the supply line and depressurize the system fully before removing an existing valve or installing this valve. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads prior to making connections. Do not exceed the rated pressure or temperature limits for the service fluid in use.
