Legend Valve 104-608 Bronze Gate Valve 2 Inches Soldered

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 104-608 is a 2-inch bronze gate valve with a non-rising stem design, intended for fully open or fully closed flow isolation in plumbing and mechanical systems. The screw-in bonnet provides a secure, leak-resistant seal at the packing chamber. A solid wedge disc delivers consistent shutoff across a range of line pressures. The soldered end connection makes this valve suitable for copper pipe installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of valve in water distribution, HVAC hydronic piping, and general commercial or residential plumbing systems.

This valve is sized for 2-inch pipe and connects via soldered joints, making it a standard choice for copper-pipe supply lines, heating and cooling water circuits, and isolation applications where the valve body remains stationary during operation. The non-rising stem design is preferred in tight-clearance installations where vertical stem travel would be obstructed. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial mechanical rooms, utility rooms, and inline service-isolation points.

Key Features

• Non-rising stem keeps overall installed height constant during operation — suitable for confined spaces
• Solid wedge disc provides positive shutoff and long service life under normal line pressure
• Screw-in bonnet allows field repacking without removing the valve body from the line
• Bronze body construction offers corrosion resistance in potable water and hydronic applications
• Soldered end connections compatible with standard 2-inch copper pipe and fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation gate valve for 2-inch copper pipe systems using soldered end connections in residential and commercial plumbing and hydronic piping.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure completely before cutting into the line or removing an existing valve. Use standard soldering practices — clean, flux, and properly heat both the valve end and copper pipe to achieve a full solder joint without overheating the valve seat or disc. Gate valves should be installed in the fully open or fully closed position during normal operation and are not rated for flow throttling.
