Conbraco Industries 50-GB6-01A Ball Valve

The Conbraco Industries 50-GB6-01A Ball Valve is a rugged, 1 1/4" FNPT bronze gas shutoff valve engineered specifically for high-capacity main burner applications. Built with a heavy-duty ASTM B584 bronze body and a 2-piece design, this professional-grade valve is rated for 1/2 PSI gas pressure and supports a substantial flow capacity of up to 3,250,000 BTU/hr. It serves as a direct, high-efficiency replacement for discontinued 50-GB6-01 and 50-503-02 units, providing contractors with a reliable upgrade path for existing gas lines. The integrated 1/8" NPT dual pilot tapping allows for the seamless connection of pilot lines or pressure gauges without additional manifolding. Designed for compatibility with natural gas, LP gas, and propane-air mixtures, this Apollo 50-GB series valve features a chrome-plated ball and a zinc tee handle for smooth operation and positive shutoff in demanding commercial and industrial boiler environments.

• Enhanced Flow Capacity: Delivers up to 3,250,000 BTU/hr for large-scale "main burner" equipment.
• Dual Pilot Ports: Features twin 1/8" NPT tappings for flexible pilot light or diagnostic gauge installation.
• Corrosion Resistance: Utilizing an ASTM B584 bronze body and chrome-plated ball to withstand harsh gas mixtures.
• Direct Retrofit: Engineered specifically to replace legacy 50-GB6-01 and 50-503-02 gas valves.
• Industry Compliance: Meets standard requirements for natural and manufactured gas system configurations.

Is the 50-GB6-01A compatible with LP gas systems?
Yes, this bronze ball valve is rated for use with natural gas, manufactured gas, liquefied petroleum gases (LP), and LP gas-air mixtures.

What is the difference between this and the older 50-GB6-01?
The 50-GB6-01A is the official manufacturer replacement, maintaining the 1 1/4" NPT footprint while ensuring modern performance standards for high-BTU gas shutoff.

Can I use these tappings for a pressure test gauge?
The 1/8" NPT dual side taps are specifically designed for either pilot burner connections or the installation of pressure testing equipment.
