Legend Valve 114-706NLB Straight Stop Valve Lead-free Chrome

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 114-706NLB is a lead-free chrome straight stop valve designed for use in PEX-based water supply systems. It connects a 1/2-inch Wirsbo cold expansion (1960 series) PEX fitting to a 3/8-inch OD compression outlet, allowing a licensed plumber to shut off supply flow at the fixture level. The lead-free construction meets current federal and state potable water requirements. The chrome finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for exposed under-sink installations in residential and light commercial applications.

This straight stop valve is used where the supply line runs in a straight path from the wall or floor to the fixture angle, rather than making a 90-degree turn. It is commonly installed on PEX rough-in systems using the Wirsbo 1960 cold expansion method, connecting to standard 3/8-inch OD compression supply tubes for faucets, toilets, or similar fixtures. It fits into the Cold Expansion Fittings product category and is classified as a straight stop configuration.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Wirsbo 1960 cold expansion PEX systems using a 1/2-inch expansion connection on the inlet side and a 3/8-inch OD compression supply tube on the outlet side. Listed under the Cold Expansion Fittings section, Angle Stops group, by Legend Valve.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the main water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. The 1960 cold expansion connection requires the appropriate expansion tool and PEX expansion ring sized for the 1/2-inch Wirsbo system. Do not overtighten the compression fitting on the 3/8-inch outlet, as this can damage the ferrule and cause leaks.
