Nibco NL3X002 Bronze Globe Valve 1/8 Inch 600 Psi

Product Description

The NIBCO NL3X002 is a bronze integral globe valve designed for threaded pipe connections in steam and fluid control applications. Built to Class 300 standards, it carries a working pressure rating of 600 psi WOG (water, oil, gas) and 300 psi WSP (working steam pressure). The valve features a PTFE disc for reliable sealing and a union bonnet design that simplifies internal access during maintenance without removing the valve from the line. At 1.384 pounds, it is a compact, field-ready component suited for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters.

This globe valve is intended for use in residential and light commercial piping systems where precise flow regulation is required. The 1/8 inch pipe size with threaded ends makes it a practical choice for small-diameter steam, water, oil, or gas service lines. The union bonnet construction is especially useful in applications where periodic inspection or disc replacement is anticipated without full line disassembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing and mechanical codes, including IPC and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the line completely and allow steam lines to cool before beginning work. Use appropriate thread sealant rated for the service medium when making threaded connections. Do not exceed the rated WOG or WSP pressure limits for the valve class.
