Legend Valve 104-668 Bronze Gate Valve 2 Inch Soldered

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 104-668 is a 2-inch bronze gate valve with a non-rising stem design, intended for soldered end connections in commercial and residential plumbing systems. The solid wedge disc provides full-bore shutoff when the valve is in the open position, minimizing flow restriction. The screw-over bonnet style simplifies field maintenance and repacking without removing the valve from the line. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of valve where dependable full-flow isolation is required on copper piping systems.

This valve is suited for use in water distribution, hydronic heating, and general plumbing service lines where a soldered copper connection is standard. The non-rising stem design makes it appropriate for installations with limited vertical clearance above the valve, such as in mechanical rooms, utility chases, or tight ceiling spaces. It is typically installed by licensed plumbing contractors on copper systems following IPC or local plumbing code requirements.

Key Features

• Non-rising stem keeps vertical clearance requirements minimal during operation
• Solid wedge disc delivers positive shutoff with minimal seat wear
• Screw-over bonnet allows in-line repacking and maintenance
• Soldered end connection compatible with standard copper tubing practices
• Bronze body construction provides corrosion resistance in potable water and hydronic applications

Compatibility

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

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 depressurize the line completely before soldering or servicing the valve. Use proper flux and lead-free solder as required by potable water codes. Allow the valve body to cool fully before applying operating pressure to avoid seat or seal damage.
