Legend Valve 104-501 Bronze Gate Valve 1/4 Inch Threaded

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 104-501 is a non-rising stem bronze gate valve designed for threaded pipe connections in plumbing and fluid control systems. Built with a solid wedge disc and screw-in bonnet, it delivers reliable full-bore shutoff in residential and light commercial installations. The bronze body provides corrosion resistance in water service applications. At 0.73 pounds, it is a compact, durable component suited for 1/4 inch pipe configurations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this valve in supply lines, distribution manifolds, and service isolation points where a low-profile, non-rising stem design is required.

This gate valve is suited for 1/4 inch threaded pipe systems in residential plumbing, hydronic heating, and general water distribution applications. The non-rising stem design makes it a practical choice in installations with limited vertical clearance above the valve. The threaded end connection allows direct makeup to NPT-threaded pipe and fittings without additional adapters. It is well-suited for isolation service in tight spaces where full-open or full-closed operation is the standard use case.

Key Features

• Non-rising stem design conserves vertical clearance in confined installations
• Bronze body construction resists corrosion in water and fluid service
• Solid wedge disc provides positive shutoff with minimal leakage
• Screw-in bonnet allows field serviceability without special tooling
• Threaded end connection compatible with standard NPT pipe and fittings
• Compact form factor at 0.73 pounds for easy handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation gate valve for 1/4 inch NPT threaded plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any valve. Use appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape on NPT connections and tighten to hand-tight plus wrench turns per fitting manufacturer guidelines — do not overtighten bronze-bodied fittings. Gate valves are intended for full-open or full-closed service and should not be used for throttling flow.
