It delivers unrestricted flow through its full-port design, making it well suited for residential and light commercial potable water and hydronic distribution systems. The cold expansion end connections create a compression-fit seal when expanded PEX tubing is allowed to recover around the fitting. Installation is completed by licensed plumbers working on PEX-A piping systems where F1960 expansion fittings are specified. Lead-free construction meets drinking water compliance requirements under applicable safe drinking water regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve is used in 1-inch PEX-A piping systems installed in residential plumbing, radiant heat distribution, and similar hydronic applications. The F1960 cold expansion connection type is compatible with PEX-A tubing expanded using a proper expansion tool before the fitting is inserted and the tubing memory-contracts to form the joint. It is commonly found at zone isolation points, manifold inlets, and equipment shutoffs in both new construction and retrofit plumbing work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead-free construction meets safe drinking water standards for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-port ball design minimizes pressure drop and flow restriction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold expansion F1960 end connections for PEX-A tubing — no solder, no press tool required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch size fits standard 1-inch PEX-A distribution piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuarter-turn operation for fast shutoff during service or isolation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1-inch PEX-A tubing systems using ASTM F1960 cold expansion fittings.

Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Use a calibrated PEX expansion tool rated for F1960 connections to expand the tubing before inserting the valve end; allow adequate time for the tubing to recover and form a secure joint before pressurizing. Do not apply heat to the cold expansion connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort\u003c\/strong\u003e: Full Port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cold Expansion (ASTM F1960)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Free\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MATCO-NORCA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19529\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MATCO-NORCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233624817970,"sku":"19529","price":29.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307629324.jpg?v=1780104977","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/matco-norca-19529-full-port-pex-ball-valve-1-inch-f1960","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
