Brasscraft NV105-6X Straight Needle Valve 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The BRASSCRAFT NV105-6X is a straight needle valve designed for precise flow control in plumbing and mechanical systems. The valve features a brass body construction and a 3/8 inch nominal compression end connection, making it well suited for tubing runs where a leak-tight, adjustable shutoff is required. Compression fittings require no soldering, which speeds up installation and allows the valve to be used in close quarters. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians typically install this type of valve on supply lines serving appliances, fixtures, or low-pressure equipment.

This needle valve is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where fine flow regulation is needed rather than a simple on/off shutoff. Typical install locations include under-sink supply connections, ice maker lines, and similar small-diameter tubing applications where a 3/8 inch compression fitting is the standard connection type. The straight body configuration allows inline installation without additional fittings or offsets.

Key Features

• Straight inline body design for direct installation in tubing runs
• 3/8 inch nominal compression end connections on both ports
• Brass body construction provides corrosion resistance in water service
• Needle-style stem allows precise flow adjustment and full shutoff
• No-solder compression fittings simplify installation and service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation needle valve for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using 3/8 inch compression tubing connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before removing or installing this valve. Compression fittings should be tightened with two wrenches to avoid twisting the supply tube. Do not overtighten the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and cause leaks.
