Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 759108-04 is a straight needle valve with a 0.25-inch male pipe thread (MPT) connection. Needle valves provide precise flow control by using a tapered pin to regulate fluid or gas passing through the valve body. This valve is lead free compliant and meets the requirements of Public Law 111-380, making it suitable for potable water and other regulated applications. It is a common component in plumbing, HVAC, and instrumentation systems where fine flow adjustment is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of valve as part of water supply, fuel, or process piping assemblies.

This straight needle valve is used in residential and light commercial applications where precise shutoff or flow throttling is needed. The 0.25-inch MPT connection allows direct threading into standard pipe fittings and valve bodies. Its lead free compliance makes it appropriate for drinking water systems subject to state and federal low-lead mandates. Typical installations include water supply lines, gauge isolation, and fuel line service points. Sold in a package quantity of 5 units.
