Bk 103-024 Forged Brass Ball Hose Bibb 3/4 Inch Mip

Product Description

The BK 103-024 is a forged brass ball hose bibb designed for residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It features a quarter-turn ball valve mechanism that delivers a large, unobstructed flow rate and a positive shutoff. Rated for 200 psi WOG (water, oil, gas), this hose bibb is built to handle demanding service conditions. The inlet is sized at 3/4 inch male iron pipe (MIP) and the outlet is 3/4 inch male hose thread. Pipe threads conform to ANSI B1.20.1 and hose threads conform to ANSI B1.20.7, ensuring compatibility with standard fittings and garden hose connections.

This hose bibb is suited for exterior wall-mount installations, utility rooms, and irrigation tie-ins where a reliable shutoff at the hose connection point is needed. The quarter-turn operation makes it fast to open and close during seasonal winterization or routine service. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential water supply lines, commercial wash-down stations, or light industrial connections will find this fitting appropriate for standard-pressure systems.
