Spears 3629-020 PVC Ball Valve
The Spears 3629-020 is a 2-inch inline PVC ball valve designed for fluid control in residential and commercial plumbing systems. It features a full-port design with a 3-piece construction that allows for straightforward maintenance. The valve body, ball, and stem are made from PVC with EPDM seats and seals. It is rated for a maximum pressure of 235 psi CWP.
Check pipe size and connection types
Verify that your existing piping uses a 2-inch nominal size before ordering this valve. The inlet connection is a solvent-weld socket while the outlet uses a female National Pipe Thread (FNPT). Confirm that your system operates within the temperature range of 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Ensure the fluid media is compatible with PVC and EPDM materials.
Replaces worn inline shut-off valves
This valve serves as a direct replacement for damaged or leaking 2-inch inline ball valves in similar PVC piping networks. The 3-piece body allows the centre section to be removed for seat or seal replacement without cutting the pipe runs. The upgrade is worth it when the Safe-T-Shear stem and full-port flow provide improved reliability over older standard-port designs.

Questions about this item
Does the Spears 3629-020 come with pipe cement or PTFE tape, or must they be purchased separately?
The valve ships alone; solvent cement for the socket end and thread sealant for the FNPT end are not included.
What does the 235 psi CWP rating mean for daily use on a 2 in line?
It is the maximum cold-water working pressure the valve can hold at 40 to 140 Degrees F; system pressure must stay at or below 235 psi.
How does the Safe-T-Shear stem behave if the handle is struck?
The stem is designed to shear at a predetermined point, keeping the ball sealed and preventing fluid loss.
