NIBCO® Press System® ball valve body manufactured from lead-free HydraPure™ Performance Bronze™ alloy and is dezincification resistant. The ball valve is designed with press-to-connect copper end connections with an inboard bead and EPDM O-ring for quick and easy copper to copper joinery. Properly applying pressure from a press-fit tool tightens the O-ring onto the tube, ensuring a clean, permanent, watertight seal in seconds, with no flame, solder or flux. NIBCO® Press System® is user friendly, quick and easy to install. When properly crimped a unique "N" witness mark is clearly visible. The lead-free HydraPure™ Performance Bronze™ ball valve is specifically designed for use in systems that deliver water for human consumption. Please refer to NIBCO technical data sheets and catalogs for engineering and installation information.
