Nibco T-174-A-14 Bronze Gate Valve 1/4 Inch Threaded

Product Description

The NIBCO T-174-A-14 is a bronze gate valve designed for demanding commercial and industrial fluid control applications. Built to handle medium to high pressure steam service, this valve is also suited for general utility piping systems including HVAC hydronic circuits. The threaded end connections allow for straightforward installation into standard pipe systems. Bronze construction provides corrosion resistance across a wide range of service conditions, making it a reliable choice for licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on mechanical systems.

This valve is used in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and HVAC mechanical rooms where gate-style shutoff is required. It performs well in steam distribution lines, hot and cold water systems, and general utility service piping. The 1/4 inch threaded configuration suits smaller branch lines and instrumentation takeoffs where a full-bore gate design is preferred over ball or globe valves for minimal flow restriction.

Key Features

• Bronze body construction for corrosion resistance in steam and water service
• Threaded end connections for standard pipe installation
• Rated for medium to high pressure steam applications
• Gate-style design provides full-bore flow with minimal pressure drop
• Suitable for commercial, mechanical, and industrial piping systems
• Backed by a NIBCO 5-year 125 percent limited warranty

Compatibility

Designed for use in commercial and industrial piping systems requiring threaded gate valve shutoff in HVAC, steam distribution, and general utility service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical and plumbing codes including the IPC and IFGC where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any valve. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to threaded joints and inspect for leaks after returning the system to service. Refer to NIBCO technical data sheets and chemical resistance guides for engineering specifications and approved service conditions.
