B K/mueller Inds(import) 107-638HC Pvc Ball Valve 2 in

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 107-638HC is a 2-inch white PVC Schedule 40 solvent ball valve designed for full-bore flow control in potable water and general plumbing systems. Rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F, it uses EPDM seats and EPDM O-rings for reliable sealing across a range of service conditions. The valve carries NSF approval, making it appropriate for drinking water applications. Solvent socket ends comply with ASTM D2466, ensuring consistent joint integrity when properly cemented. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential, commercial, or light industrial systems install this valve where a durable, chemical-resistant shutoff is required.

This valve is suited for cold and ambient-temperature water distribution, irrigation, pool and spa plumbing, and other Schedule 40 PVC piping systems. The solvent-weld end connections accept both Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 pipe, giving installers flexibility across common pipe wall thicknesses. Its white body blends with standard PVC piping layouts and allows visual identification of valve position via the lever handle.
