Ford Meter Box ufr1500-sa-4-u 4 Inch 1500 Series Valve

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX ufr1500-sa-4-u is a 4-inch service valve assembly from the 1500 Series line, designed for use in utility metering and gas or water distribution systems. This unit ships as a USA-made transition accessory, meaning it is built for domestic service requirements and includes the fittings or adapters needed to bridge connection types at the meter set point. Weighing approximately 14 pounds, this is a robust, field-ready component intended for installation by licensed plumbers and gas utility technicians working on meter set assemblies and service laterals.

This valve is suited for residential and light commercial meter set applications where a 4-inch connection is required. It is typically installed at the point where the service lateral meets the meter assembly, providing shut-off or flow-control capability at the meter station. The transition accessory designation indicates this component accommodates a change in pipe material or joint type within the meter set configuration, a common requirement in service upgrades and new lateral installations.
