Quarter-Turn Supply Stop for PEX Systems
This quarter-turn supply stop connects 1/2 inch PEX tubing to a 3/8 inch compression outlet. It is designed for residential and light-commercial plumbing installations where a straight valve body is required. The chrome-plated brass construction provides corrosion resistance in potable-water applications.
Sustained-Pressure Behaviour and Temperature Range
The valve is rated for a maximum working pressure of 125 psi across a temperature range of 40 to 180 degrees F. Quarter-turn operation allows quick shut-off without the wear associated with multi-turn stems during frequent cycling. The chrome-plated brass stem and handle maintain smooth actuation over extended service periods.
Thermal Performance and Standards Compliance
The brass body and chrome-plated components dissipate heat effectively within the rated temperature window. The assembly carries IAPMO, UPC and SA listings confirming compliance with applicable plumbing standards. At 1.85 weight units the valve adds minimal stress to PEX connections during thermal expansion cycles.

Questions about this item
How much heat can the 1/4-turn stop handle when it runs continuously at the upper end of its temperature range?
The valve is rated for continuous operation up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit, so it will handle sustained hot-water temperatures within that limit without degrading the brass body or chrome-plated stem.
What piping and tools must I already have to install the 1/2-inch PEX inlet and 3/8-inch compression outlet?
You need 1/2-inch PEX tubing with a compatible crimp or clamp ring and tool for the inlet, plus 3/8-inch copper or plastic supply tube and an adjustable wrench for the compression nut on the outlet.
Will the chrome-plated brass handle and stem hold up if I keep my older brass supply lines and fittings?
Yes, the chrome-plated brass stem and handle are designed to work with standard brass plumbing components, so they will operate reliably alongside your existing brass supply lines and fittings.
