Product Details
The 3/4" S-408 No Lead Brass Economy Gate Valve is designed for both residential and commercial potable water applications, featuring a durable all-brass body construction alongside a heavy cast iron handwheel. The valve employs an electric-induction furnace casting process that optimizes molten brass temperatures for superior cast body and bonnet components. It includes an inserted bonnet with large stem packing and a forged packing nut, while the full-flow waterway minimizes pressure drop and ensures consistent flow. The non-rising stem design enhances compactness and reliability, and the solid, fully-guided disc-wedge opens completely out of the flow path, with integral seats precision-ground to match each disc-wedge. The valve is third-party certified and complies with ANSI/NSF 61 for drinking water system components health effects and NSI/NSF 372 for lead content. It meets standards including ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 for pipe threads and ANSI/ASME B16.18 for cast pressure alloy solder-joint pressure fitting.
