Quarter-turn stop valve
The ApolloPEX quarter-turn straight stop valve provides point-of-use flow control for residential plumbing fixtures. Its 1/2 in. PEX barb inlet connects directly to PEX tubing while the 3/8 in. compression outlet accepts 3/8 in. O.D. tubing or supply lines. The chrome-plated brass body is designed for potable water systems and hydronic heating applications. Installers secure the barb with copper crimps, stainless steel pinch clamps or stainless steel crimp sleeves purchased separately.
Installation context
The valve fits into a PEX distribution system at fixtures such as dishwashers, toilets and faucets, allowing local shut-off without isolating the whole supply. It requires a compatible crimp or clamp tool and the appropriate rings or sleeves for the barb connection. The straight pattern keeps the supply line in line with the inlet, simplifying routing in tight cavities. No additional control components are needed for basic operation.
Materials and compliance
Chrome-plated brass construction resists corrosion in normal potable water service and handles typical household pressure and temperature ranges. The quarter-turn ball mechanism operates with low torque and does not require external power. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains a chemical known to the state to cause cancer and a chemical known to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
