Built to a 150 psi pressure rating and a 150 lb pressure class, this valve provides accurate shutoff and throttling in small-diameter tubing systems. The nominal port size is 3\/16 inches, and the top-to-inlet center dimension measures 0.88 inches. At approximately 0.08 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component suited for tight spaces. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics typically install this valve where fine flow adjustment is needed in low-pressure fluid or gas lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 46020 is intended for residential and light commercial applications where compression-style connections are standard. Common install scenarios include instrument lines, fuel lines, and small-bore tubing runs that require a reliable shutoff or metering point. Its compression-by-compression connection type allows it to be integrated into existing tubing systems without soldering or threading. Domestically produced, it meets the dimensional and material expectations common in trade-grade plumbing and HVAC accessory work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompression-by-compression connection for tool-accessible, solder-free installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 psi pressure rating with 150 lb pressure class for reliable low-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch nominal port size for small-diameter tubing systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass body construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 0.45 inches height, 1 inch length, and 1.7 inches width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation needle valve for compression-fitting systems using 3\/16 inch nominal tubing in plumbing and HVAC applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the line fully before removing or installing any valve. Compression fittings require proper tube preparation and correct ferrule seating to achieve a leak-free connection  -  do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule or fitting body. Verify system pressure does not exceed the 150 psi rating after returning the line to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compression x Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop to Inlet Center\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.45 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67951557476658,"sku":"46020","price":78.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ed560a0964c456e872fb31925cf8e21e.jpg?v=1791730003","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-46020-needle-valve-3-16-in-compression-150-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
