Pegler 1/2 Inch Brass Gate Valve PN20 BSP

Pegler Brass Gate Valve

The Pegler 1/2 Inch Valve provides reliable fluid isolation for domestic and commercial plumbing systems. This heavy-duty brass component ensures precise flow control and long-term durability in pressurized environments. It suits cold and hot water installations where a full-bore flow is required without significant pressure drops.

Built for the Job

Site supervisors and plumbers specify this DN15 component for its robust mechanical strength and resistance to dezincification. The non-rising stem design makes it suitable for tight spaces where vertical clearance is limited. It functions as a primary shut-off point for maintenance or as an isolation point for specific appliance branches. The solid brass wedge provides a tight seal against the valve seats, preventing leaks even under high-pressure conditions common in multi-story buildings.

• Main water supply isolation for residential units and small commercial offices.

• Control of hot water return loops and heating system branch lines.

• Industrial fluid management for non-corrosive liquids and low-pressure steam.

Product Highlights

High-Pressure Rating

The unit carries a PN20 rating, making it capable of handling working pressures up to 20 bar at standard temperatures.

Full-Bore Construction

• Minimal resistance to flow when fully open
• Reduces turbulence and noise in the pipework

Maintenance-Ready Design

The inclusion of a replaceable gland packing allows for easy servicing without removing the entire body from the line.

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x Pegler 1/2 Inch Brass Gate Valve with handwheel

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Apply quality PTFE tape or jointing compound to the male threads before installation to ensure a watertight seal.

• Always use a correctly sized wrench on the hexagonal ends of the body to avoid distorting the internal valve seat.

• This isolation hardware is bi-directional, but installers should ensure the handwheel remains accessible for emergency shut-off.

• Operate the gate fully open or fully closed; using it for throttling can lead to premature wear of the internal wedge.
