Nibco NL3W002 Bronze Globe Valve 1/8 Inch 600 Psi

Product Description

The NIBCO NL3W002 is a bronze integral globe valve designed for fluid and steam control in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. It features a 1/8 inch pipe size with threaded ends for straightforward installation into standard NPT connections. Rated at 600 psi WOG (water, oil, gas) and 300 psi WSP (working steam pressure), this Class 300 valve is built for demanding service conditions. The union bonnet design allows internal access without removing the valve body from the line. A bronze disc provides reliable shutoff performance across a range of compatible media.

This globe valve is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, hydronic heating systems, steam distribution, and general mechanical piping where precise flow regulation or shutoff is required at small pipe diameters. The 1/8 inch threaded connection makes it a common choice for instrumentation takeoffs, low-flow branch lines, and gauge isolation. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install this valve in new construction and retrofit applications where compact size and high-pressure ratings are needed.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before making any connections or performing valve service. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads before assembly; do not overtighten. Verify that system pressure and media are within the valve rated limits before returning the system to service.
