The valve features a 3\/8 inch NPT male inlet connection and uses a quarter-turn ball mechanism for fast, positive shutoff. This type of valve is a standard component in commercial and light industrial gas distribution systems, installed by licensed plumbers and gas fitters wherever a reliable inline shutoff point is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ball valve is suited for applications involving natural gas, LP gas, compressed air, and vacuum lines in both commercial kitchen and industrial service environments. The GAS-AIR-VAC service rating makes it a versatile choice for multi-media installations where a single valve type must serve across different line media. Typical install scenarios include equipment branch lines, appliance connections, and service drops requiring an accessible manual shutoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuarter-turn ball valve design for fast, positive shutoff\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch NPT male inlet for standard threaded pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for gas, air, and vacuum (GAS-AIR-VAC) service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHose cock body style suited for appliance and equipment branch lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor for installations with limited clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for gas, air, and vacuum service lines using 3\/8 inch NPT threaded connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local codes and IFGC requirements. Shut off the main gas or air supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing any valve. Apply an approved thread sealant rated for gas service to all NPT connections — do not use standard pipe dope on gas lines unless the product is specifically rated for gas. After installation, pressure-test the joint and check for leaks before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch NPT Male\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball Valve (Hose Cock)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eService Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gas, Air, Vacuum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TS BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BL-4000-01M(12)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"T\u0026S BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233304346930,"sku":"BL-4000-01M(12)","price":70.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307611822.jpg?v=1780096841","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ts-brass-bl-4000-01m12-gas-ball-valve-3-8-in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
