These are a popular valve, rated at 5,000 PSI,  
1/2" ID,
Chrome handles and steel bodies.

Operation:  
The standard needle allows fine adjustment to low flow by using the first three turns of the adjusting knob. The next three turns open the valve to full flow and also provide standard throttling adjustments.

As you open the valve there is a color band reference scale on the valve stem. The colors are brown (?), red and green. Each full turn of the handle will show another color on the stem. This helps in setting the valve originally and in returning it to any previous setting.

High efficiency O-Ring stem seal that eliminates packing.

Retail, these valves are around $20.00 new.  You'll find some sellers on ebay wanting $20.00 with as much as $1.0 for s/h.  Try to shop around before you buy these from anyone.

I bought them off ebay. At the time I didn't know what they were worth, nor did the seller.

I get alot of deals and I try to sell them as deals to others.
