What This Valve Is
The Banjo SUV050FP is a manual two-way ball valve built from polypropylene for water service. It uses a straight, three-piece body with a full-port polypropylene ball. The non-locking handle operates the valve in residential or light-commercial plumbing systems.
The Spec That Decides Fit
The valve has a nominal size of 1/2 in with NPT threads and a maximum operating pressure of 300 psi. It is not rated for steam or combustible gas, and 3-A standard compliance is not rated. Buyers needing higher pressure ratings, steam service or sanitary certification must choose a different model.
Installation Notes
The three-piece construction allows the centre section to be removed for cleaning or seal replacement without cutting pipe. Thread sealant suitable for polypropylene and water is required on the NPT connections. Over-tightening can crack the plastic body, so hand-tighten plus one to two turns is the usual practice.

Questions about this item
What does the 1/2 in nominal size mean when the valve is installed?
The 1/2 in nominal size matches standard half-inch NPT pipe threads so it connects directly to matching plumbing without adapters.
How does the NPT thread standard limit the maximum pressure I can run?
The NPT threads seal with taper engagement and the valve body is rated for 300 psi maximum operating pressure.
What clearance and mounting style does the three-piece straight body need?
The straight three-piece body fits inline between two pipe runs and can be disassembled for cleaning without removing the piping.
