Legend Valve 116-406 Wafer Butterfly Valve 6 Inch Lever

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 116-406 is a manual wafer-style butterfly valve designed for 6-inch pipe systems. It features a cast iron body, aluminum bronze disc, and stainless steel stem, with an EPDM seat for reliable sealing across a range of fluid-handling applications. The lever handle provides direct, quarter-turn operation for fast open and close cycles. This valve is sized and constructed for commercial and industrial piping systems and is typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on water distribution, HVAC hydronic systems, or general process lines.

The 116-406 fits into wafer-style installations where the valve body sandwiches between two pipe flanges, minimizing face-to-face dimensions compared to lug-style designs. The lever handle makes it well suited for applications requiring frequent manual actuation. The EPDM seat material handles water and many common fluids, making this valve a practical choice for hydronic heating and cooling loops, water treatment systems, and light industrial process piping in both commercial and industrial settings.

Key Features

• Wafer-style body fits between standard pipe flanges for compact installation
• Cast iron body provides durability for commercial and industrial service
• Aluminum bronze disc resists corrosion in water and fluid-handling systems
• Stainless steel stem for long-term corrosion resistance and reliable actuation
• EPDM seat material compatible with water and common hydronic fluids
• Quarter-turn lever handle allows fast manual open and close operation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wafer butterfly valve for 6-inch pipe systems using standard flange patterns in commercial and industrial plumbing and hydronic piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Isolate and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any valve. Ensure mating flanges are clean and properly aligned before torquing flange bolts to avoid distorting the valve seat. Follow applicable IPC and ASME piping codes for flange joint assembly and pressure testing after installation.
