PVC Ball Valve Union for Water Systems

This manual two-way ball valve is built from PVC with a straight body style and a standard port design. It handles water media at a maximum operating pressure of 225 psi and uses a non-locking lever handle for simple flow control. The valve suits residential and light commercial plumbing installations requiring a reliable shut-off point.

Pressure and Media Constraints

The valve is rated for water service up to 225 psi and carries no rating for steam or combustible gas applications. Vacuum service is not applicable and 3-A sanitary standard compliance is not rated for this unit. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Socket Installation and Common Issues

The socket ends require solvent cement joining to PVC pipe, so clean cuts and proper primer application are essential for leak-free joints. Over-tightening during assembly can stress the PVC body and lead to cracking. The two-piece construction allows union disassembly for maintenance but the union nut must be seated evenly to prevent weeping at the seal.

Questions about this item

Which size should I choose for my plumbing project?

The valve has a nominal size of 1 1/2 inches and a straight body style to match piping of the same nominal diameter.

What does the 225 psi rating mean once the valve is installed?

It indicates the maximum operating pressure for water service; the valve is not rated for steam or combustible gas.

How does the socket connection affect installation?

The socket ends are solvent-welded to PVC pipe, creating a permanent joint that cannot be disconnected without cutting.
