Legend Valve LEG101-205NL Press Ball Valve 1 Inch

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE LEG101-205NL is a press-connect ball valve designed for professional plumbing installations where a reliable, solder-free shutoff is required. This valve uses a press-style end connection that allows technicians to make a secure, leak-tested joint without open flame, significantly reducing installation time on copper pipe systems. The full-port ball design provides minimal flow restriction when the valve is open, making it well-suited for supply lines and branch shutoffs in both residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this valve type.

The LEG101-205NL is appropriate for residential and light commercial water supply systems where a 1-inch press connection is specified. Press-style ball valves are commonly installed in new construction and retrofit applications where flame-free joining is preferred or required by local code, such as in occupied buildings or near flammable materials. This valve provides a positive on/off shutoff at individual branch lines, equipment connections, or service isolation points within a potable water distribution system.

Key Features

• Press-connect ends eliminate the need for soldering or open flame during installation
• Full-port ball design minimizes pressure drop across the valve when fully open
• 1-inch connection size suits main branch and equipment shutoff applications
• Lead-free construction meets drinking water compliance requirements for potable water systems
• Quarter-turn operation provides fast, positive open and close shutoff

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press ball valve for use with 1-inch copper or compatible press-system piping in residential and light commercial potable water distribution applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC. Ensure the pipe end is clean, deburred, and marked to the correct insertion depth before pressing. Use only a press tool and jaw set rated and approved for the fitting size and connection system. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing any existing valve or fitting.
