Matco-norca 514C081F Brass Gate Valve 2 in Sweat

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA 514C081F is a full-bore brass gate valve with a 2-inch sweat (solder) end connection, designed for isolation service in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Gate valves in this configuration provide a straight-through flow path with minimal pressure drop when fully open, making them a standard choice for water supply shutoff applications. The brass body construction offers corrosion resistance in potable water lines. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors install this valve during new construction, renovation, and system repair work.

This valve is suited for use on copper pipe systems where a reliable manual shutoff is required. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water supply lines, hydronic heating circuits, and general plumbing service lines. The sweat end connection requires a standard solder joint using lead-free solder and flux in compliance with local plumbing codes for potable water service. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations.

Key Features

• 2-inch sweat (solder) end connection for direct copper pipe joining
• Brass body construction for corrosion resistance in potable water systems

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and fully drain the line before cutting into existing pipe or soldering the valve into place. Use lead-free solder and appropriate flux for all potable water connections. Gate valves should be installed in the fully open or fully closed position during normal operation and are not recommended for throttling service.
