Conbraco 50-GB7-01 Valve

The Conbraco 50-GB7-01 is a professional-grade 1-1/2 inch gas shutoff ball valve engineered specifically for high-capacity main burner applications. Featuring a robust ASTM B584 bronze body and a two-piece design, this standard port gas valve delivers a massive capacity of up to 7,745,000 BTU/hr. It is rated for gas pressures of 1/2 PSI and can handle natural gas, manufactured gases, and LP gas-air mixtures with ease. The integrated 1/8" NPT pilot tapping allows for secondary connections, such as pilot lights or pressure gauge monitoring, directly at the valve body, streamlining your field installation. Equipped with a durable zinc tee handle and chrome-plated brass ball, this valve ensures a bubble-tight seal and excellent corrosion resistance in demanding mechanical rooms. For contractors needing a reliable FNPT gas ball valve that meets UL 125 and ANSI Z21.15 standards, the 50-GB7-01 (also recognized under the Apollo Valves brand) provides the flow performance and safety certifications required for large-scale commercial heating systems.
