Legend Valve 105-516 Sweat Strainer 1-1/4 Inch 20 Mesh

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 105-516 is a bronze Y-strainer from the S-15 Series, designed to filter debris from liquid lines in plumbing and hydronic heating systems. It accepts a 1-1/4 inch sweat connection and houses a 20 mesh stainless steel screen that captures particulate before it reaches valves, meters, and other inline equipment. The unit is rated from 150 to 300 psi, making it suitable for a range of residential and light commercial service pressures. At 5.91 inches in length, it fits into standard inline installations without requiring extensive pipe rerouting. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

The 105-516 is used in closed-loop hydronic heating systems, domestic water supply lines, and chilled water distribution where protecting downstream components from scale, solder debris, and sediment is a priority. The sweat end connection integrates directly into copper pipe runs, making it a common choice for new construction and retrofit work where copper piping is already present.

Key Features

• Bronze housing resists corrosion in water-service applications
• Stainless steel 20 mesh screen captures fine particulate without restricting flow excessively
• Sweat connection for direct integration into copper pipe systems
• Pressure rated from 150 to 300 psi for residential and light commercial service
• Compact 5.91 inch body length fits in tight inline installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style inline strainer for 1-1/4 inch copper pipe systems using sweat connections in residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and fully depressurize and drain the line before soldering the sweat connections. Orient the strainer so the screen cap or blowdown plug is accessible for routine cleaning and maintenance. Allow all solder joints to cool completely before restoring system pressure.
