AAP Gas Brass Ball Valve, 1/4"

This AAP gas brass ball valve has a T-handle and female threaded ends. It is supplied in 5 sizes from 1/4" (8mm) to 1" (25mm). A ball valve turns a ball with a hole through it between sealing seats. When the lever or handle is in line with the pipe the hole lines up with the flow and the valve is open, and a quarter turn closes it. The handle sits in line with the port, so it shows the valve position.

The body and seat retainer are nickel-plated brass, the ball is chromium-plated brass, the seat is PTFE and the stem packing is a double Viton O-ring. The T-handle is a compact handle with a handle length of 48 to 72mm in this range, against 85 to 115mm for the lever version in the same sizes, which helps where space around the valve is tight. Gas fitting work must be done by a licensed gasfitter, so check the approval and the gas pressure limits against the rules for your job before you install it.
