Valve for compressed-air and vacuum systems
This full-port ball valve is built for 1/2-inch compression connections on air compressors and vacuum pumps. The no-lead forged brass body meets Proposition 65 disclosure requirements for lead content. It suits installers who need a reliable shut-off in residential or light-commercial piping.
Installation uses standard compression ends
Compression fittings let you join copper or compatible tubing without soldering or threading tools. The most common issue is over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the ferrules and cause leaks. Proper deburring and alignment of the tube ends prevents most sealing problems.
Full-port design matches the tube bore
The unrestricted bore keeps pressure drop low across the valve, which is useful on compressor discharge lines. Compression ends limit the maximum working pressure to the rating of the tubing and ferrule combination used. The valve is not intended for applications that require welded or flanged connections.
