Ford Meter Box bfa13-677w-nl Angle Ball Valve 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX bfa13-677w-nl is a no-lead flanged angle ball valve designed for water meter installations. It provides a reliable shutoff in pressurized water service lines, allowing technicians to isolate flow at the meter connection point. The valve features a 2-inch female iron pipe thread inlet and a 1-1/2-inch meter flange outlet in an angle-body configuration. Weighing 7.64 pounds, it is built for durable field service. The no-lead construction meets federal and state safe drinking water requirements for potable water systems. Licensed plumbers and water utility technicians are the primary installers for this type of valve.

This angle ball valve is used in residential and light commercial water meter settings where a flanged meter connection is required. The angle-body design allows for compact installation in meter pits, vaults, and curb boxes where straight inline valves would not fit the service configuration. The 2-inch female iron pipe thread connection accommodates standard service line piping, and the 1-1/2-inch meter flange mates directly to compatible meter flanges. It is sold in a box quantity of 2.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water utility technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the service line before removing or installing the valve. Inspect flange gaskets and thread connections for proper seating before returning the line to service. Do not overtighten iron pipe thread connections, as this can damage the valve body or mating fittings.
