Product Identity
The Legend Valve 101-578NL is a 1-inch T-2008NL no-lead DZR forged brass drop-ear PEX ball valve. It suits plumbers and installers working on potable-water systems that require lead-free components and a secure mounting ear.
Installation Notes
The drop-ear design allows direct fastening to framing, which simplifies alignment during rough-in. The forged brass body resists deformation when crimping PEX connections, though over-tightening the crimp ring can still damage the valve seat.
Interface Limits
The valve uses a standard PEX crimp interface rated for typical residential pressure and temperature ranges. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the presence of chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm, so installers should follow local safety handling guidelines.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 1" T-2008NL valve is operating correctly after installation?
Pressurise the system and check the drop-ear connections for leaks; the forged brass body and no-lead DZR alloy should hold pressure without weeping at the PEX crimp joints.
What components are included with the Legend Valve 101-578NL and what must I source separately?
The valve body with integral drop ears is supplied; PEX tubing, crimp rings or cinch clamps, and the appropriate crimp tool are not included and must be purchased separately.
Which Legend Valve configuration suits my 1" PEX plumbing project?
The 101-578NL is a 1" T-2008NL no-lead DZR forged brass drop-ear ball valve designed for direct PEX connection; select it when your line size is 1" and a drop-ear mounting style is required.
