Nibco NL94GIA 2-piece Ball Valve 1 in Fnpt Carbon Steel

Product Description

The NIBCO NL94GIA is a 2-piece, threaded ball valve rated for demanding process and utility piping service. Built on the T-580-CS-R-66 series platform, it features a carbon steel body, a 316 stainless steel ball and stem trim, and PTFE soft goods for reliable shutoff across a broad range of media. The valve carries a 2000 psi pressure rating and a 400 degrees F temperature rating, making it suitable for high-pressure steam, water, and chemical service lines. The 0.89 inch standard port orifice and lever handle actuator allow quick manual shutoff without specialized tools. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this valve in industrial and commercial settings.

This valve is designed for process piping, utility service, and select chemical applications where a robust threaded shutoff is required. The FNPT end connections accept standard pipe threads, making it straightforward to install inline on 1 inch piping systems. The standard lever handle provides a clear open-closed visual indicator, which is practical in crowded mechanical rooms and utility chases. Media compatibility includes water and chemical service as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical and plumbing codes. Isolate and depressurize the line and relieve any residual system pressure before removing the existing valve. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to FNPT connections per the piping system requirements. Verify the valve handle is in the closed position before returning the system to service and confirm there are no leaks at working pressure.
