2" No Lead DZR Forged Brass Press Union

The Legend Valve 450-818P is a 2-inch press union manufactured from no-lead DZR forged brass. It is designed for plumbing professionals and installers who need a reliable, lead-free connection in potable water systems. The union joins two pipe ends securely using a press tool, eliminating the need for soldering or threading on site. Its dezincification-resistant alloy ensures durability in aggressive water conditions.

Press connection simplifies installation

Installation is completed with a compatible press tool and the correct jaw size for 2-inch tubing, creating a permanent mechanical joint without flame or flux. The press method reduces labour time and avoids the fire hazards associated with traditional soldering. Common issues arise if the tubing is not cut square, fully deburred, or inserted to the proper depth before pressing. An incomplete press or contaminated sealing surface can lead to leaks that require the joint to be cut out and remade.

Suited for lead-free potable water systems

This union suits plumbers and contractors working on new or retrofit potable water installations where no-lead components are mandated by code. The DZR forged brass body resists corrosion in chlorinated or slightly acidic water supplies. It is not intended for gas distribution, compressed air lines, or high-temperature hydronic heating systems exceeding typical domestic hot water temperatures. Buyers needing threaded, soldered, or flanged connections should select a different fitting style.
