Apollo 32‑102‑01 ¾″ 400 lb Bronze Ball Valve

Apollo 32‑102‑01 ¾″ Bronze Ball Valve is a reduced-port, lever‑operated NPT valve rated 400 psi CWP with PTFE seats and blow‑out‑proof stem—built for industrial use.

Description

Apollo 32‑102‑01 ¾″ Bronze Ball Valve is part of the trusted 32‑100 series—a robust bronze NPT ball valve engineered to meet industrial reliability standards. The Apollo 32‑102‑01 ¾″ Bronze Ball Valve features a cast ASTM B584‑grade bronze body, blow‑out‑proof B16 stem, and PTFE seats with an MPTFE stuffing box ring, ensuring smooth operation and long-term seal integrity. The lever includes a zinc‑plated steel handle with vinyl grip for easy manual control.

This valve offers a 400 psi Cold Working Pressure (CWP) rating and 125 psi Saturated Steam Pressure (SWP), making it suitable for systems handling water, air, steam, and non-corrosive fluids. The ¾″ reduced-port design balances cost and performance for low-flow industrial applications.

Manufactured in the USA, the Apollo 32‑102‑01 ¾″ Bronze Ball Valve meets vacuum service down to 29 in Hg and can handle temperatures up to 400 °F, making it versatile across HVAC, irrigation, light steam, and compressed-air systems. The valve is factory-tested and includes features designed for durability:
