Matco-norca 26-1003plf Angle Stop 1/2 Press X 3/8 Comp

Product Description

The MATCO-NORCA 26-1003plf is a lead-free brass angle stop valve designed for residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It connects a 1/2 inch press inlet to a 3/8 inch compression outlet, allowing a plumber to shut off supply water to a fixture without cutting off the entire line. The one-piece body and double O-ring design provide a reliable seal with minimal leak points. A 1/4 turn operation gives fast, positive shut-off. The chrome-plated finish meets standard trim requirements for exposed under-sink installations.

This valve is used in residential and commercial plumbing systems as an under-sink or in-wall angle stop for toilets, lavatory faucets, and similar fixtures. The press-fit inlet eliminates the need for soldering, making it well suited for service calls and retrofit work where open flame is restricted or inconvenient. It is installed by licensed plumbers and qualified service technicians wherever a code-compliant, lead-free shut-off is required.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation angle stop for residential and light commercial plumbing systems requiring a 1/2 inch press inlet and 3/8 inch compression outlet shut-off valve.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off the main water supply and relieve line pressure before beginning work. The press fitting requires a proper press tool and correct jaw set for the pipe material and fitting size. Do not over-tighten the compression nut on the outlet, as this can crack the ferrule and cause a leak.
