Conbraco 26-104-01 Gauge Cock
The Conbraco 26-104-01 Gauge Cock is a standard-setting component for technical fluid management in HVACR and industrial hydronic systems. This 1/2" Male NPT compression gauge cock is engineered from high-grade satin brass, providing necessary corrosion resistance for draining expansion tanks and monitoring liquid storage vessels. Featuring a durable aluminum wheel handle, this valve allows technicians to achieve precise manual control when isolating pressure gauges or bleeding lines. Rated for a maximum working pressure of 125 PSI, it ensures reliable performance and system safety by allowing for gauge maintenance without requiring a full system depressurization. The rugged construction and Apollo Valves engineering heritage make this brass gauge cock an essential fitting for contractors focused on long-term hardware reliability. Its compact design facilitates installation in tight mechanical rooms, while the 1/2-inch connection ensures compatibility with standard pipe fittings and boiler trim configurations found in commercial mechanical environments.
Key Benefits- Durable Construction: Heavy-duty satin brass body prevents premature degradation in high-moisture environments.
- Precise Control: The integrated aluminum wheel provides high-leverage manual operation for accurate flow regulation.
- Simplified Maintenance: Facilitates pressure gauge isolation, allowing for part replacement without shutting down the entire loop.
- Versatile Application: Standard 1/2" Male NPT threading ensures easy integration into various boiler and tank setups.
- High Pressure Rating: Safely handles operational loads up to 125 PSI in liquid and air service applications.
What is the maximum pressure rating for this gauge cock?
The Conbraco 26-104-01 is rated for a maximum pressure of 125 PSI, making it suitable for most low-to-medium pressure hydronic systems.
Can this valve be used for steam service?
While frequently used in expansion tanks, always check your specific system operating temperatures against the satin brass and aluminum trim limits for high-temperature steam compatibility.
How does the aluminum wheel handle perform compared to plastic?
The aluminum wheel offers superior structural integrity and heat resistance, ensuring it will not crack or degrade under the heavy use typically seen in mechanical rooms.
