The solid wedge disc and screw-in bonnet provide a reliable shutoff in low-pressure fluid service. Rated at 125 psi pressure class, this valve handles typical residential and light commercial water distribution demands. The wheel handle allows manual operation in tight spaces where a full-port ball valve may not fit. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this valve in supply lines, branch shutoffs, and retrofit applications where soldered copper is the standard connection method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NJ0J005 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations using 3\/8-inch copper tubing. Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water supply branches, small hydronic heating circuits, and fixture isolation points. The soldered end connection integrates directly with standard copper pipe runs without adapters. The non-rising stem keeps the installed height fixed during operation, which is an advantage in confined mechanical spaces where vertical clearance is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-rising stem design keeps overall valve height constant during operation, ideal for low-clearance installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid wedge disc delivers positive shutoff and reduced internal leakage over service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-in bonnet construction simplifies field repacking without removing the valve from the line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoldered end connection integrates directly with standard 3\/8-inch copper tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel handle provides controlled, manual actuation in restricted spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e125 psi pressure class rated for residential and light commercial water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation gate valve for 3\/8-inch copper pipe systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications using soldered end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and drain the supply line completely before cutting into the pipe or heating the joint. Use standard sweat-soldering technique with appropriate flux and lead-free solder as required by potable water codes. Avoid applying torch heat directly to the valve body during soldering; protect the valve internals by keeping the valve in the open position and working quickly to minimize heat transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soldered (Sweat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Wedge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBonnet Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141613\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: NJ0J005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538393235762,"sku":"NJ0J005","price":79.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2634c8384ec5c52e6ec20d133331c2f5.jpg?v=1785824313","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-nj0j005-gate-valve-3-8-inch-soldered-bronze","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
