Legend Valve 102-515 Manual Ball Valve 1 in Fnpt

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 102-515 is a manual ball valve designed for 1-inch female NPT (FNPT) threaded connections on both ends. Ball valves provide full-bore shutoff by rotating a spherical disc to open or close flow through the line. This type of valve is a standard component in plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical piping systems where reliable manual isolation is required. The wedge-style handle gives the technician a positive grip for quick quarter-turn operation. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this valve on water, fluid, and low-pressure service lines in residential and light commercial applications.

This valve is suited for inline shutoff applications on 1-inch threaded pipe systems. The FNPT x FNPT end configuration threads directly onto male-threaded pipe or fittings without additional adapters. A 1/8 NPT tap is included, which is commonly used for pressure gauge ports, drain connections, or instrumentation taps. Single-piece construction keeps the installation straightforward for service calls, new construction rough-in, and retrofit work on existing piping systems.

Key Features

• 1-inch FNPT x FNPT end connections for direct threaded installation
• Wedge-style handle provides secure grip and clear open/closed visual indication
• 1/8 NPT side tap for gauge, drain, or instrumentation port access
• Quarter-turn manual operation for fast line isolation
• Single-piece valve body simplifies handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation manual ball valve for 1-inch threaded plumbing and mechanical piping systems using NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing any existing valve or installing this one. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male NPT threads per code requirements before threading the valve into place. Do not over-torque threaded connections, and verify the valve is in the fully open or fully closed position before returning the system to service.
