It features a male pipe thread (MPT) inlet and female pipe thread (FPT) outlet, allowing straightforward inline installation. The valve carries a 600 psi WOG (water, oil, gas) pressure rating and operates across a temperature range of -20 to 300 degrees F. Construction includes a brass body and ball, PTFE seat and seal, brass stem, and steel tee-style handle for positive quarter-turn operation. Thread sealant is included. The valve measures 2.094 inches from inlet to outlet and 1.213 inches from the top to the inlet center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, compressed air, and compatible gas distribution lines where a compact, reliable manual shutoff is required. The MPT x FPT connection pattern makes it a direct drop-in for threaded pipe runs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians routinely install this style of valve in gas supply lines, water distribution systems, and equipment isolation applications. The 3\/8-18 thread size conforms to standard NPT specifications. The included thread sealant simplifies field installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e600 psi WOG pressure rating for water, oil, and gas service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch MPT x FPT threaded connections for inline installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass body and ball construction for corrosion resistance in fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE seat, seal, and packing for leak-tight shutoff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuarter-turn steel tee handle for positive open\/close operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread sealant included for immediate field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide service temperature range: -20 to 300 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for 3\/8-inch NPT threaded pipe systems in plumbing, HVAC, gas distribution, and light industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), or the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service applies.
