Product Identity
The Legend Valve 101-484NL is a 3/4 inch drop ear ball valve built from no-lead DZR forged brass for cold expansion PEX systems. It carries the F1960 standard and complies with California Proposition 65 requirements. Plumbers and contractors use it for secure potable water connections in residential and commercial installations.
Suitability
This valve suits installers who need a lead-free, drop ear ball valve for F1960 cold expansion PEX piping. It is not for buyers who require a sweat or threaded connection type, nor for systems that specify a different tubing standard or material compatibility.
Deciding Specification
The cold expansion PEX F1960 interface is the single specification that decides fitment. Confirm that your tubing and expansion tooling match this exact standard before purchasing.

Questions about this item
Does the 1960 PEX connection on the 101-484NL require any special tools or periodic re-tightening?
The cold-expansion PEX ends (F 1960) need a compatible expansion tool at install; once seated on the DZR forged brass body they do not need routine re-tightening.
What pressure or temperature limit will be reached first if the valve runs continuously on a hot-water line?
The no-lead DZR forged brass body handles standard plumbing pressures and temperatures; the cold-expansion PEX interface typically sets the practical ceiling before the brass does.
Will the drop-ear mounting transmit vibration or heat from the valve into the framing during all-day operation?
The drop-ear tabs are integral to the forged brass body, so conducted heat follows the pipe temperature and mechanical vibration is minimal with the full-port ball design.
