Valve Connections and Use

This straight shut-off valve connects 1/2 inch sweat copper piping to 3/8 inch O.D. compression fittings. It isolates water flow to a single fixture during repairs or replacements. The compact straight pattern suits tight supply-line runs behind sinks or toilets. Installers can solder the sweat end and tighten the compression nut without special tools.

Upgrade From Gate Or Globe Valves

Replacing an older gate or globe valve with this quarter-turn ball mechanism eliminates stem packing leaks and reduces operating torque. The jump is worth it when the existing valve seizes, drips at the packing nut, or requires multiple turns to close. A straight body also avoids the flow restriction common in angled multi-turn designs.

California Proposition 65 Notice

This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm under Proposition 65. Verify local plumbing codes accept sweat-to-compression transitions before ordering. Confirm the copper tube is clean, round and free of burrs for a leak-free solder joint. Ensure the compression ferrule matches the 3/8 inch O.D. tubing specified.

Questions about this item

What pipe size does the 1/2" sweat inlet of the CC83251X valve connect to?

The 1/2" sweat inlet is designed to be soldered directly onto standard 1/2 inch copper tubing for a permanent connection.

How is the 3/8" O.D. compression outlet on the CC83251X valve installed, and what step is often missed?

Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the 3/8" O.D. supply tube, insert the tube fully into the valve outlet, then tighten the nut securely; the step often missed is ensuring the tube bottoms out before tightening.

Will the internal washers or O-rings in the CC83251X shut-off valve need replacement over time?

Yes, the internal stem packing and seat washer can wear with use and may eventually require replacement to stop drips or seepage at the handle or outlet.
