Built with threaded ends for 3\/8 inch pipe, this valve features a PTFE disc and a union bonnet for easy in-line maintenance without removing the valve body from the line. It carries a pressure rating of 600 psi WOG (water, oil, gas) and 300 psi WSP (saturated steam pressure), making it suitable for a wide range of service conditions. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this valve where reliable shutoff and throttling are required in bronze-compatible piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis globe valve is well suited for residential and light commercial applications where threaded bronze valves are specified. Typical installations include domestic water supply lines, low-pressure steam systems, heating and cooling distribution piping, and general fluid control where PTFE disc seating provides a dependable, drop-tight shutoff. The union bonnet design simplifies inspection and disc replacement without disturbing surrounding pipe connections, making it a practical choice for maintenance-intensive installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePTFE disc provides dependable shutoff and resistance to corrosion and chemical attack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnion bonnet allows in-line servicing without removing valve from piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e600 psi WOG rating supports water, oil, and gas service across a broad range of pressures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300 psi WSP rating qualifies the valve for saturated steam applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze body construction offers durability and compatibility with copper and bronze piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch threaded ends for standard NPT pipe connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation globe valve for 3\/8 inch threaded bronze piping systems in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off the water or fluid supply and relieve all system pressure before installing or servicing the valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before assembly and tighten to a snug, leak-free fit without over-torquing the bronze body. The union bonnet allows disc access by loosening the bonnet nut without breaking pipe connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\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: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: PTFE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBonnet Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating (WOG)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating (WSP)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: Class 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.324 pounds\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: NL3X005\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538973851954,"sku":"NL3X005","price":175.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ed33d86fd3743e3bbf673700f0c0421e.jpg?v=1785831467","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-nl3x005-bronze-globe-valve-3-8-in-threaded-600-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
