Ball Valves

Ball valves provide on/off flow control in compatible plumbing and utility-water lines. This category includes brass, PVC and PE ball valves with different connection sizes and fitting styles. Compare body material, nominal bore, connection type, pressure rating and approved temperature or liquid service before choosing a replacement.

Match the existing pipe system and verify whether the connection is threaded, solvent-welded or designed for polyethylene pipe. A similar nominal size does not guarantee the same external dimensions or thread standard. Before service, isolate the supply and relieve pressure. Check the direction and clearance needed to turn the handle fully and follow the valve manufacturer’s installation guidance.
