Nibco NL3MN06 Bronze Globe Valve 0.5 in Threaded 400 Psi

Product Description

The NIBCO NL3MN06 is a bronze renewable full plug disc globe valve designed for flow regulation in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. Built with a union bonnet design for easy in-line disc removal and replacement, this valve accepts 0.5-inch threaded pipe connections and is rated at 400 psi WOG (water, oil, gas) and 200 psi WSP (working steam pressure), placing it in Pressure Class 200. The handwheel handle provides controlled, precise throttling. Bronze construction with alloy-threaded disc offers corrosion resistance in a range of fluid service applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of valve.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, hydronic heating, and mechanical systems where a renewable disc configuration is preferred. The threaded end connections allow direct installation into standard NPT-threaded pipe runs without additional fittings. The renewable disc design means the seat disc can be serviced without removing the valve body from the line, reducing downtime during maintenance. Typical applications include water distribution, low-pressure steam service, and general fluid shutoff or throttling tasks.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water or fluid supply and relieve system pressure fully before installing or servicing this valve. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant on NPT connections to ensure a leak-free joint. Do not exceed the rated WOG or WSP pressure limits for the intended service fluid.
