Tapco VP1989BG Lever Handle Assembly

Product Description

The TAPCO VP1989BG is a lever handle assembly designed for use in fluid control applications where a reliable manual shutoff or flow-direction component is required. Lever handle assemblies of this type provide a positive grip point for operating ball valves, gate valves, or similar quarter-turn and multi-turn valve bodies. The assembly allows a technician to quickly open, close, or throttle flow without the need for additional tools under normal service conditions. This part is typically installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or pipefitters working on water, gas, or refrigerant line applications.

Lever handle assemblies are found across a wide range of residential and light commercial systems, including hydronic heating loops, domestic water distribution, gas supply lines, and HVAC refrigerant circuits. The VP1989BG serves as a direct replacement or service part for valve assemblies requiring a handle component. Specific compatible valve bodies or system model numbers were not provided in the product data, so installers should verify fitment against the existing valve stem size and attachment configuration before ordering.

Key Features

• Manual lever operation allows quick open and close without additional tools
• Designed as a replacement handle assembly for compatible valve bodies
• Suitable for trade installation in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems
• Compact lever form factor supports use in space-constrained installation environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement lever handle assembly for compatible TAPCO valve bodies. No specific model numbers or system families were included in the product data. Verify stem size, attachment method, and handle geometry against the existing valve before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician. Shut off the relevant fluid or gas supply and depressurize the line before removing or replacing any valve handle component. Confirm the handle attaches securely to the valve stem and that any set screw or fastener is properly tightened before returning the system to service. Consult applicable local codes such as the IPC or IFGC for requirements governing valve accessibility and shutoff placement.
