Overview
The Sharpe WCB 201 1-1/2″ ball valve is a manual-operated, two-piece carbon steel valve engineered for general industrial duty. With a 2000 WOG (Water, Oil, Gas) pressure rating and NPT threaded end connections, this Sharpe WCB 201 valve provides economical and dependable service in hydraulic systems, pneumatic lines, pump discharge, and plumbing applications. The standard port design balances flow capacity with operational reliability.
Key Features
- Manual lever operation — simple, reliable on/off control with no external power required
- Carbon steel body with corrosion-resistant internal components for extended service life
- 2000 WOG pressure rating — suitable for high-pressure industrial applications up to 2000 psi
- NPT threaded connections — direct compatibility with standard pipe fittings and tubing systems
- Standard port design — optimized flow rate and pressure drop for general industrial duty
- 316 stainless steel ball and stem — enhanced durability and corrosion resistance
